Geometry-Aware Reference Synthesis for Multi-View Image Super-Resolution
share
Recent multi-view multimedia applications struggle between high-resolution (HR) visual experience and storage or bandwidth constraints. Therefore, this paper proposes a Multi-View Image Super-Resolution (MVISR) task. It aims to increase the resolution of multi-view images captured from the same scene. One solution is to apply image or video super-resolution (SR) methods to reconstruct HR results from the low-resolution (LR) input view. However, these methods cannot handle large-angle transformations between views and leverage information in all multi-view images. To address these problems, we propose the MVSRnet, which uses geometry information to extract sharp details from all LR multi-view to support the SR of the LR input view. Specifically, the proposed Geometry-Aware Reference Synthesis module in MVSRnet uses geometry information and all multi-view LR images to synthesize pixel-aligned HR reference images. Then, the proposed Dynamic High-Frequency Search network fully exploits the high-frequency textural details in reference images for SR. Extensive experiments on several benchmarks show that our method significantly improves over the state-of-the-art approaches.
