发明名称 Adaptive Patch-Based Image Upscaling
摘要 Image upscaling techniques are described. These techniques may include use of iterative and adjustment upscaling techniques to upscale an input image. A variety of functionality may be incorporated as part of these techniques, examples of which include content-adaptive patch finding techniques that may be employed to give preference to an in-place patch to minimize structure distortion. In another example, content metric techniques may be employed to assign weights for combining patches. In a further example, algorithm parameters may be adapted with respect to algorithm iterations, which may be performed to increase efficiency of computing device resource utilization and speed of performance. For instance, algorithm parameters may be adapted to enforce a minimum and/or maximum number to iterations, cease iterations for image sizes over a threshold amount, set sampling step sizes for patches, employ techniques based on color channels (which may include independence and joint processing techniques), and so on.

主权项 1. A method implemented by one or more computing devices, the method comprising: upscaling an input image by a scale factor to generate an upscaled input image; smoothing the input image to generate a smoothed input image; and generating an upscaled image iteration comprising, for each patch in the upscaled input image: identifying which of a plurality of patches in the smoothed input image is most similar to the patch in the upscaled input image;computing a prediction for the patch in the upscaled input image using the most similar patch from the smoothed input image and a corresponding patch from the input image; andforming a prediction of a patch for the upscaled image iteration using the prediction for the patch in the upscaled image and the patch in the upscaled image.
