Real-time Video Enhancement Using Graphical Processing Units

In this paper, we proposed a real-time video enhancing algorithm which uses the Graphical Processing Units (GPU's) for faster parallel computations. Also, the paper will discuss the performance gains with GPU respect to a Central Processing Units (CPU's). The video enhancing algorithm is written to address the real-time video enhancement scenario, hence we will discuss more on the speed and the quality of the video enhancement. 

Here we discuss about the trade-off between the quality and speed of the real-time video enhancement. The latter part of the paper will discuss the optimizations to have real-time performance that is needed to enhance and play videos up to 4k videos. We proposes a generic implementation that can be used to have high-end video quality using low-end video recording devices like mass scale CCTV cameras, etc. This implementation will use NVIDIA CUDA enabled graphics cards.
