Abstract:
Single image super-resolution (SISR) is a difficult inverse problem because it requires reconstructing high-frequency details from low-resolution images. Most CNN-based super-resolution (SR) methods directly learn the mapping from low-resolution to high-resolution using complex convolutional neural networks.
However, blindly increasing network depth improves performance marginally but costs a lot. Integrating image prior knowledge into the model helps image reconstruction more efficiently. The soft-edge is an important image feature in many computer vision tasks.
This paper proposes a Soft-edge assisted Network (SeaNet) to reconstruct high-quality SR images using image soft-edge. Three subnets—RIRN, Edge-Net, and IRN—make up SeaNet. Reconstruction has two phases. Stage-I RIRN and Edge-Net reconstruct the rough SR feature maps and soft-edge.
Stage-II fuses the outputs of previous stages and feeds them to the IRN for high-quality SR image reconstruction. Extensive experiments show that SeaNet converges quickly and performs well with image soft-edge.
