Home > Why Genuine Fractals > Genuine Fractals Solution Genuine Fractals Solution Genuine Fractal's patented scaling algorithm is fundamentally different from bicubic or other interpolation methods. While these other methods sample nearby pixels and decide upon new pixel values one by one, fractal scaling samples nearby "blocks", square groups of pixels and varying sizes, compares them to smaller versions of the original image and mosaics these patches together to create a larger version of the original. By doing this repeatedly, the characteristics of the image such as edges, smooth areas, and textures are reinforced for each larger version. Noise is de-emphasized and sharp details are maintained. All of this number crunching may take a bit longer than the single pass interpolation methods like bicubic, but good things come to those who wait and the reward is far superior results.
