Single Image Super-Resolution via a Dual Interactive Implicit Neural Network

원문 초록

In this paper, we introduce a novel implicit neural network for the task of single image super-resolution at arbitrary scale factors. To do this, we represent an image as a decoding function that maps locations in the image along with their associated features to their reciprocal pixel attributes. Since the pixel locations are continuous in this representation, our method can refer to any location in an image of varying resolution. To retrieve an image of a particular resolution, we apply a decoding function to a grid of locations each of which refers to the center of a pixel in the output image. In contrast to other techniques, our dual interactive neural network decouples content and positional features. As a result, we obtain a fully implicit representation of the image that solves the super-resolution problem at (real-valued) elective scales using a single model. We demonstrate the efficacy and flexibility of our approach against the state of the art on publicly available benchmark datasets.
