Description
Summary:Image super-resolution reconstruction can reconstruct low resolution blurred images in the same scene into high-resolution images. Combined with multi-scale Gaussian difference transform, attention mechanism and feedback mechanism are introduced to construct a new super-resolution reconstruction network. Three improvements are made. Firstly, its multi-scale Gaussian difference transform can strengthen the details of low resolution blurred images. Secondly, it introduces the attention mechanism and increases the network depth to better express the high-frequency features. Finally, pixel loss function and texture loss function are used together, focusing on the learning of structure and texture respectively. The experimental results show that this method is superior to the existing methods in quantitative and qualitative indexes, and promotes the recovery of high-frequency detail information.
