Single image super-resolution via Image Quality Assessment-Guided Deep Learning Network.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, deep learning (DL) networks have been widely used in super-resolution (SR) and exhibit improved performance. In this paper, an image quality assessment (IQA)-guided single image super-resolution (SISR) method is proposed in DL architecture, in order to achieve a nice tradeoff between perceptual quality and distortion measure of the SR result. Unlike existing DL-based SR algorithms, an IQA net is introduced to extract perception features from SR results, calculate corresponding loss fused with original absolute pixel loss, and guide the adjustment of SR net parameters. To solve the problem of heterogeneous datasets used by IQA and SR networks, an interactive training model is established via cascaded network. We also propose a pairwise ranking hinge loss method to overcome
