• Abstract summary: We extend BasicVSR++ to a generic framework for video restoration tasks. In tasks where inputs and outputs possess identical spatial size, the input resolution is reduced by strided convolutions to maintain efficiency. With only minimal changes from BasicVSR++, the proposed framework achieves compelling performance with great efficiency in various video restoration tasks.

• Abstract: The exploitation of long-term information has been a long-standing problem in video restoration. The recent BasicVSR and BasicVSR++ have shown remarkable performance in video super-resolution through long-term propagation and effective alignment. Their success has led to a question of whether they can be transferred to different video restoration tasks. In this work, we extend BasicVSR++ to a generic framework for video restoration tasks. In tasks where inputs and outputs possess identical spatial size, the input resolution is reduced by strided convolutions to maintain efficiency. With only minimal changes from BasicVSR++, the proposed framework achieves compelling performance with great efficiency in various video restoration tasks including video deblurring and denoising. Notably, BasicVSR++ achieves comparable performance to Transformer-based approaches with up to 79% of parameter reduction and 44x speedup. The promising results demonstrate the importance of propagation and alignment in video restoration tasks beyond just video super-resolution.

We decrease the entropy of the information lost in the downscaling by maximizing its conditioned probability on the strong spatial-temporal prior information. We extend the framework to a lossy video compression system, in which a gradient estimator for non-differential industrial lossy codecs is proposed.
