Super-Resolving Compressed Images via Parallel and Series Integration of Artifact Reduction and Resolution Enhancement
Hongming Luo, Fei Zhou, Guangsen Liao, Guoping Qiu.
We collect 76 uncompressed images by ourselves to supplement Kodak24 (http://r0k.us/graphics/kodak/). These images are selected from 1000 images with size of 3840 * 2160 and cropped as images with size of 600 * 600. They are from a variety of scenarios including indoors, outdoors and so on. We prepare these datas using MATALB.

Thumbnail of our collected images.
Involved methods: SA_DCT [10], TNRD [11], DnCNN [3], DCSC [12]. Among these compared methods, the inputs of SA_DCT and TNRD are limited to JPEG images. Thus, they are not able to restore WebP images. The best performance is bold and the second one is underlined in the following table.
All of our results are available at:
