Abstract
En 中文
The performance of video super-resolution (VSR) has significantly improved. However, the current methods only focus on a single scale factor, treating the VSR of different scale factors independently and disregarding video super-resolution of arbitrary-scale factors. To address this issue, we propose a model, the Bidirectional ScaleAware Upsampling Network for Arbitrary-Scale Video Super-Resolution, which eliminates the need for multiple models for various scale factors. We design a Bidirectional Scale-Aware Upsampling module in the proposed model, consisting of a Bidirectional Scale-Aware Module (BSAM) and a Spatial Pyramid Upsampling section. The BSAM extracts feature for various scale factors and allows feature information of different scales to interact bidirectionally. Additionally, we propose a Spatial Pyramid Loss that optimizes the network based on upsampling and maps the results of different scales to a unified spatial set to find the arbitrary-scale factor's loss. Along with this, we introduce an Explicit Feature Pyramid module, which uses Spatial Pyramid Upsampling to learn arbitrary-scale factor details explicitly. Finally, we demonstrate the extensibility of the model through a VSR algorithm integration with the Bidirectional Scale-Aware Upsampling, ensuring high-resolution results of arbitrary-scale factors without affecting the performance. Our comprehensive experiments on public benchmarks show promising results for video super-resolution of arbitrary-scale factors.
