Abstract
A method for enhancing at least a section of lower-quality visual data, the method comprising at least a section of the lower-quality visual data being received. A hierarchical algorithm is then selected from a plurality of hierarchical algorithms, wherein the step of selection is based on a predetermined metric and wherein the hierarchical algorithms were developed using a learned approach and at least one of the hierarchical algorithms is operable to increase the quality of the lower-quality visual data. The selected hierarchical algorithm is then used to increase the quality of the lower-quality visual data to create a higher-quality visual data.
