   Hmm, I don’t think so. Traditional antialiasing spreads the partial pixel errors from a line (or edge) into the adjacent pixels. In order to undo it you’d need to know where the line is, but that’s the very information you’re trying to recover from the image.

Strictly speaking though, (almost) any filter is invertible. Of course you do need to know what the original filter was which is easier said than done.

Yeah, but if you think of line antialiasing as a sort of blur filter, you’ll notice the convolution kernel is directional. The blurring occurs perpendicular to the direction of the line. This implies a different filter for each line segment on an edge. Knowing the direction of ALL the filters is the same as knowing where the lines are.
