Image Super-Resolution using Explicit Perceptual Loss
This paper proposes an explicit way to optimize the super-resolution network for generating visually pleasing images. The previous approaches use several loss functions which is hard to interpret and has the implicit relationships to improve the perceptual score. We show how to exploit the machine learning based model which is directly trained to provide the perceptual score on generated images. It is believed that these models can be used to optimizes the super-resolution network which is easier to interpret. We further analyze the characteristic of the existing loss and our proposed explicit perceptual loss for better interpretation. The experimental results show the explicit approach has a higher perceptual score than other approaches. Finally, we demonstrate the relation of explicit perceptual loss and visually pleasing images using subjective evaluation.

Perceptual Quality Optimization of Image Super-Resolution
Single-image super-resolution (SR) has achieved remarkable progress with deep learning, yet most approaches rely on distortion-oriented losses or heuristic perceptual priors, which often lead to a trade-off between fidel…
Image Super-ResolutionUncovering the Over-smoothing Challenge in Image Super-Resolution: Entropy-based Quantification and Contrastive Optimization
PSNR-oriented models are a critical class of super-resolution models with applications across various fields. However, these models tend to generate over-smoothed images, a problem that has been analyzed previously from …
