Are there any hybrid plugins which use content aware algorithm selection? Would it be possible to give a favorite for each algorithm type? I suspect that some plugins which using a similar algorithm are simply better than others. Perhaps I was too limiting in asking for a favorite. So would you recommend getting a bunch of different plugins and trying them on different images until you get a feel for which one will work best? Would it be too much to ask what your "couple more" plugins are?
ON1 RESIZE PHOTOSHOP PLUGIN PRO
PS - BTW, I have never had a problem with PhotoZoom Pro inventing unbelievable texture or edge artifacts, but I always tweak every available knob in any software I am using, LOL. IMHO, there is absolutely nothing that beats personal experience when working in this area. Some do better in areas with a relatively small number of well separated, sharp, well defined edges, some do better in areas where there are many, closely (and possibly regularly) spaced edges, some better where there is a more natural, fractal-like texture that needs to be interpolated. In fact, I find that often, one algorithm will be better in one part of the image, whereas another algorithm will be better in another part of the same image. After following this field for at least 2 decades, I find general discussions without reference to specific example images to be next to useless (at least for the better algorithms).
My opinion is that the only way to tell which is "the winner" is to try them for yourself on the particular image that you need resized.
ON1 RESIZE PHOTOSHOP PLUGIN PLUS
I own and use all three of the image resizing packages you mentioned, plus a couple more. Personally, I don't have time to discuss that enormous literature base here. For example, a Google search on produced over 10 million, very reasonable hits. As I'm sure you must know, discussion of the best image resizing algorithm / software package has been a real can of worms that dates even from pre-Photoshop days, ie, the late 1980's through late 1990's, when many of the algorithms were still being discussed in Computer Science classes and graduate school research.
