Google 超分辨率技术 RAISR：模糊图片瞬间变清晰，运算速度快十倍

Everyday the web is used to share and store millions of pictures, enabling one to explore the world, research new topics of interest, or even share a vacation with friends and family. However, many of these images are either limited by the resolution of the device used to take the picture, or purposely degraded in order to accommodate the constraints of cell phones, tablets, or the networks to which they are connected. With the ubiquity of high-resolution displays for home and mobile devices, the demand for high-quality versions of low-resolution images, quickly viewable and shareable from a wide variety of devices, has never been greater.With “RAISR: Rapid and Accurate Image Super-Resolution”, we introduce a technique that incorporates machine learning in order to produce high-quality versions of low-resolution images. RAISR produces results that are comparable to or better than the currently available super-resolution methods, and does so roughly 10 to 100 times faster, allowing it to be run on a typical mobile device in real-time. Furthermore, our technique is able to avoid recreating the aliasing artifacts that may exist in the lower resolution image.Upsampling, the process of producing an image of larger size with significantly more pixels and higher image quality from a low quality image, has been around for quite a while. Well-known approaches to upsampling are linear methods which fill in new pixel values using simple, and fixed, combinations of the nearby existing pixel values. These methods are fast because they are fixed linear filters (a constant convolution kernel applied uniformly across the image). But what makes these upsampling methods fast, also makes them ineffective in bringing out vivid details in the higher resolution results. As you can see in the example below, the upsampled image looks blurry – one would hesitate to call it enhanced.

With RAISR, we instead use machine learning and train on pairs of images, one low quality, one high, to find filters that, when applied to selectively to each pixel of the low-res image, will recreate details that are of comparable quality to the original. RAISR can be trained in two ways. The first is the "direct" method, where filters are learned directly from low and high-resolution image pairs. The other method involves first applying a computationally cheap upsampler to the low resolution image (as in the figure above) and then learning the filters from the upsampled and high resolution image pairs. While the direct method is computationally faster, the 2nd method allows for non-integer scale factors and better leveraging of hardware-based upsampling. For either method, RAISR filters are trained according to edge features found in small patches of images, - brightness/color gradients, flat/textured regions, etc. - characterized by direction (the angle of an edge), strength (sharp edges have a greater strength) and coherence (a measure of how directional the edge is). Below is a set of RAISR filters, learned from a database of 10,000 high and low resolution ima
