• Abstract: Performing super-resolution of a depth image using the guidance from an RGB image is a problem that concerns several fields, such as robotics, medical imaging, and remote sensing. While deep learning methods have achieved good results in this problem, recent work highlighted the value of combining modern methods with more formal frameworks. In this work, we propose a novel approach which combines guided anisotropic diffusion with a deep convolutional network and advances the state of the art for guided depth super-resolution. The edge transferring/enhancing properties of the diffusion are boosted by the contextual reasoning capabilities of modern networks, and a strict adjustment step guarantees perfect adherence to the source image. We achieve unprecedented results in three commonly used benchmarks for guided depth super-resolution. The performance gain compared to other methods is the largest at larger scales, such as x32 scaling. Code (https://github.com/prs-eth/Diffusion-Super-Resolution) for the proposed method is available to promote reproducibility of our results.

  This paper focuses on how to embed the high-dimensional spatial-spectral information of hyperspectral (HS) images efficiently and effectively. We formulate HS embedding as an approximation of the posterior distribution of a set of carefully-defined HS embedding events. Then, we incorporate the proposed feature embedding scheme into a source-consistent super-resolution framework that is physically-interpretable. Experiments over three common benchmark datasets demonstrate that PDE-Net achieves superior performance over state-of-the-art methods.

  Guided depth super-resolution is a practical task where a low-resolution and noisy input depth map is restored to a high-resolution version. We take the form of a general image but use a novel Joint Implicit Image Function representation to learn both the weights and values. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our JIIF representation on guided depth super-resolution task, significantly outperforming state-of-the-art methods on three public benchmarks.
