Image Super-Resolution is a machine learning task where the goal is to increase the resolution of an image, often by a factor of 4x or more, while maintaining its content and details as much as possible. The end result is a high-resolution version of the original image. This task can be used for various applications such as improving image quality, enhancing visual detail, and increasing the accuracy of computer vision algorithms.

SRGAN, a generative adversarial network (GAN) for image super-resolution (SR), is presented, to its knowledge, the first framework capable of inferring photo-realistic natural images for 4x upscaling factors and a perceptual loss function which consists of an adversarial loss and a content loss.
This work considers image transformation problems, and proposes the use of perceptual loss functions for training feed-forward networks for image transformation tasks, and shows results on image style transfer, where aFeed-forward network is trained to solve the optimization problem proposed by Gatys et al. in real-time.
This work proposes a deep learning method for single image super-resolution (SR) that directly learns an end-to-end mapping between the low/high-resolution images, represented as a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) that takes the low-resolution image as the input and outputs the high-resolution one.
This paper presents the first convolutional neural network capable of real-time SR of 1080p videos on a single K2 GPU and introduces an efficient sub-pixel convolution layer which learns an array of upscaling filters to upscale the final LR feature maps into the HR output.
This paper develops an enhanced deep super-resolution network (EDSR) with performance exceeding those of current state-of-the-art SR methods, and proposes a new multi-scale deepsuper-resolution system (MDSR) and training method, which can reconstruct high-resolution images of different upscaling factors in a single model.
This work thoroughly study three key components of SRGAN – network architecture, adversarial loss and perceptual loss, and improves each of them to derive an Enhanced SRGAN (ESRGAN), which achieves consistently better visual quality with more realistic and natural textures than SRGAN.
SinGAN, an unconditional generative model that can be learned from a single natural image, is introduced, trained to capture the internal distribution of patches within the image, and is then able to generate high quality, diverse samples that carry the same visual content as the image.
This paper investigates the construction of feed-forward denoising convolutional neural networks (DnCNNs) to embrace the progress in very deep architecture, learning algorithm, and regularization method into image Denoising, and uses residual learning and batch normalization to speed up the training process as well as boost theDenoising performance.
This work proposes a residual in residual (RIR) structure to form very deep network, which consists of several residual groups with long skip connections, and proposes a channel attention mechanism to adaptively rescale channel-wise features by considering interdependencies among channels.
This paper proposes residual dense block (RDB) to extract abundant local features via dense connected convolutional layers and uses global feature fusion in RDB to jointly and adaptively learn global hierarchical features in a holistic way.
Adding a benchmark result helps the community track progress.
