• Abstract: Arbitrary-scale video super-resolution (AVSR) aims to enhance the resolution of video frames, potentially at various scaling factors, which presents several challenges regarding spatial detail reproduction, temporal consistency, and computational complexity. In this paper, we first describe a strong baseline for AVSR by putting together three variants of elementary building blocks: 1) a flow-guided recurrent unit that aggregates spatiotemporal information from previous frames, 2) a flow-refined cross-attention unit that selects spatiotemporal information from future frames, and 3) a hyper-upsampling unit that generates scaleaware and content-independent upsampling kernels. We then introduce ST-AVSR by equipping our baseline with a multi-scale structural and textural prior computed from the pre-trained VGG network. This prior has proven effective in discriminating structure and texture across different locations and scales, which is beneficial for AVSR. Comprehensive experiments show that ST-AVSR significantly improves super-resolution quality, generalization ability, and inference speed over the state-of-theart.

  We propose an efficient recurrent network with bidirectional interaction for ST-VSR. It first performs backward inference from future to past, and then follows forward inference to super-resolve intermediate frames. Our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods in efficiency, and reduces calculation cost by about 22%.

Second, we put forward a spatial-temporal deformable feature aggregation (STDFA) module, in which spatial and temporal contexts are adaptively captured and aggregated.
