Perceptual Extreme Super-Resolution for single image is extremely difficult, because the texture details of different images vary greatly. To tackle this difficulty, we develop a super resolution network with receptive field block based on Enhanced SRGAN. We call our network RFB-ESRGAN. The key contributions are listed as follows. First, for the purpose of extracting multi-scale information and enhance the feature discriminability, we applied receptive field block (RFB) to super resolution. RFB has achieved competitive results in object detection and classification. Second, instead of using large convolution kernels in multi-scale receptive field block, several small kernels are used in RFB, which makes us be able to extract detailed features and reduce the computation complexity. Third, we alternately use different upsampling methods in the upsampling stage to reduce the high computation complexity and still remain satisfactory performance. Fourth, we use the ensemble of 10 models of different iteration to improve the robustness of model and reduce the noise introduced by each individual model. Our experimental results show the superior performance of RFB-ESRGAN. According to the preliminary results of NTIRE 2020 Perceptual Extreme Super-Resolution Challenge, our solution ranks first among all the participants.

This paper reviews the NTIRE 2020 challenge on perceptual extreme super-resolution with focus on proposed solutions and results. The challenge task was to super-resolve an input image with a magnification factor 16 based on a set of prior examples of
low and corresponding high resolution images. The goal is to obtain a network design capable to produce high resolution results with the best perceptual quality and similar to the ground truth. The track had 280 registered participants, and 19 teams submitted the final results. They gauge the state-of-the-art in single image super-resolution.
This paper proposes an explicit way to optimize the super-resolution network for generating visually pleasing images. The previous approaches use several loss functions which is hard to interpret and has the implicit relationships to improve the perc
eptual score. We show how to exploit the machine learning based model which is directly trained to provide the perceptual score on generated images. It is believed that these models can be used to optimizes the super-resolution network which is easier to interpret. We further analyze the characteristic of the existing loss and our proposed explicit perceptual loss for better interpretation. The experimental results show the explicit approach has a higher perceptual score than other approaches. Finally, we demonstrate the relation of explicit perceptual loss and visually pleasing images using subjective evaluation.
Recently, the single image super-resolution (SISR) approaches with deep and complex convolutional neural network structures have achieved promising performance. However, those methods improve the performance at the cost of higher memory consumption,
which is difficult to be applied for some mobile devices with limited storage and computing resources. To solve this problem, we present a lightweight multi-scale feature interaction network (MSFIN). For lightweight SISR, MSFIN expands the receptive field and adequately exploits the informative features of the low-resolution observed images from various scales and interactive connections. In addition, we design a lightweight recurrent residual channel attention block (RRCAB) so that the network can benefit from the channel attention mechanism while being sufficiently lightweight. Extensive experiments on some benchmarks have confirmed that our proposed MSFIN can achieve comparable performance against the state-of-the-arts with a more lightweight model.
The video super-resolution (VSR) task aims to restore a high-resolution (HR) video frame by using its corresponding low-resolution (LR) frame and multiple neighboring frames. At present, many deep learning-based VSR methods rely on optical flow to pe
rform frame alignment. The final recovery results will be greatly affected by the accuracy of optical flow. However, optical flow estimation cannot be completely accurate, and there are always some errors. In this paper, we propose a novel deformable non-local network (DNLN) which is a non-optical-flow-based method. Specifically, we apply the deformable convolution and improve its ability of adaptive alignment at the feature level. Furthermore, we utilize a non-local structure to capture the global correlation between the reference frame and the aligned neighboring frames, and simultaneously enhance desired fine details in the aligned frames. To reconstruct the final high-quality HR video frames, we use residual in residual dense blocks to take full advantage of the hierarchical features. Experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed DNLN can achieve state-of-the-art performance on VSR task.
Convolutional neural networks are the most successful models in single image super-resolution. Deeper networks, residual connections, and attention mechanisms have further improved their performance. However, these strategies often improve the recons
truction performance at the expense of considerably increasing the computational cost. This paper introduces a new lightweight super-resolution model based on an efficient method for residual feature and attention aggregation. In order to make an efficient use of the residual features, these are hierarchically aggregated into feature banks for posterior usage at the network output. In parallel, a lightweight hierarchical attention mechanism extracts the most relevant features from the network into attention banks for improving the final output and preventing the information loss through the successive operations inside the network. Therefore, the processing is split into two independent paths of computation that can be simultaneously carried out, resulting in a highly efficient and effective model for reconstructing fine details on high-resolution images from their low-resolution counterparts. Our proposed architecture surpasses state-of-the-art performance in several datasets, while maintaining relatively low computation and memory footprint.
