Most recent video super-resolution (SR) methods either adopt an iterative manner to deal with low-resolution (LR) frames from a temporally sliding window, or leverage the previously estimated SR output to help reconstruct the current frame recurrently. A few studies try to combine these two structures to form a hybrid framework but have failed to give full play to it. In this paper, we propose an omniscient framework to not only utilize the preceding SR output, but also leverage the SR outputs from the present and future. The omniscient framework is more generic because the iterative, recurrent and hybrid frameworks can be regarded as its special cases. The proposed omniscient framework enables a generator to behave better than its counterparts under other frameworks. Abundant experiments on public datasets show that our method is superior to the state-of-the-art methods in objective metrics, subjective visual effects and complexity. Our code will be made public.

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.
This paper explores an efficient solution for Space-time Super-Resolution, aiming to generate High-resolution Slow-motion videos from Low Resolution and Low Frame rate videos. A simplistic solution is the sequential running of Video Super Resolution and Video Frame interpolation models. However, this type of solutions are memory inefficient, have high inference time, and could not make the proper use of space-time relation property. To this extent, we first interpolate in LR space using quadratic modeling. Input LR frames are super-resolved using a state-of-the-art Video Super-Resolution method. Flowmaps and blending mask which are used to synthesize LR interpolated frame is reused in HR space using bilinear upsampling. This leads to a coarse estimate of HR intermediate frame which often contains artifacts along motion boundaries. We use a refinement network to improve the quality of HR intermediate frame via residual learning. Our model is lightweight and performs better than current state-of-the-art models in REDS STSR Validation set.
Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMR) is widely used since it can illustrate the structure and function of heart in a non-invasive and painless way. However, it is time-consuming and high-cost to acquire the high-quality scans due to the hardware limitation. To this end, we propose a novel end-to-end trainable network to solve CMR video super-resolution problem without the hardware upgrade and the scanning protocol modifications. We incorporate the cardiac knowledge into our model to assist in utilizing the temporal information. Specifically, we formulate the cardiac knowledge as the periodic function, which is tailored to meet the cyclic characteristic of CMR. In addition, the proposed residual of residual learning scheme facilitates the network to learn the LR-HR mapping in a progressive refinement fashion. This mechanism enables the network to have the adaptive capability by adjusting refinement iterations depending on the difficulty of the task. Extensive experimental results on large-scale datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method compared with numerous state-of-the-art methods.
To the best of our knowledge, the existing deep-learning-based Video Super-Resolution (VSR) methods exclusively make use of videos produced by the Image Signal Processor (ISP) of the camera system as inputs. Such methods are 1) inherently suboptimal due to information loss incurred by non-invertible operations in ISP, and 2) inconsistent with the real imaging pipeline where VSR in fact serves as a pre-processing unit of ISP. To address this issue, we propose a new VSR method that can directly exploit camera sensor data, accompanied by a carefully built Raw Video Dataset (RawVD) for training, validation, and testing. This method consists of a Successive Deep Inference (SDI) module and a reconstruction module, among others. The SDI module is designed according to the architectural principle suggested by a canonical decomposition result for Hidden Markov Model (HMM) inference; it estimates the target high-resolution frame by repeatedly performing pairwise feature fusion using deformable convolutions. The reconstruction module, built with elaborately designed Attention-based Residual Dense Blocks (ARDBs), serves the purpose of 1) refining the fused feature and 2) learning the color information needed to generate a spatial-specific transformation for accurate color correction. Extensive experiments demonstrate that owing to the informativeness of the camera raw data, the effectiveness of the network architecture, and the separation of super-resolution and color correction processes, the proposed method achieves superior VSR results compared to the state-of-the-art and can be adapted to any specific camera-ISP.

Video super-resolution has recently become one of the most important mobile-related problems due to the rise of video communication and streaming services. While many solutions have been proposed for this task, the majority of them are too computatio nally expensive to run on portable devices with limited hardware resources. To address this problem, we introduce the first Mobile AI challenge, where the target is to develop an end-to-end deep learning-based video super-resolution solutions that can achieve a real-time performance on mobile GPUs. The participants were provided with the REDS dataset and trained their models to do an efficient 4X video upscaling. The runtime of all models was evaluated on the OPPO Find X2 smartphone with the Snapdragon 865 SoC capable of accelerating floating-point networks on its Adreno GPU. The proposed solutions are fully compatible with any mobile GPU and can upscale videos to HD resolution at up to 80 FPS while demonstrating high fidelity results. A detailed description of all models developed in the challenge is provided in this paper.
