Abstract

The invention discloses a super-resolution reconstruction method and system for an image. The method is based on a channel attention mechanism and a position attention mechanism of an image. Featureson each image block are extracted at different depths and then fused, and the importance of the characteristic channel information and the position information is effectively identified; and since thefeatures of different depths make different contributions to the image super-resolution, the method and the system make full use of and fuses the features of different depths, the obtained image features retain a larger receptive field and better detail features at the same time, and the super-resolution effect of the obtained image is better after reconstruction based on the features. Besides, the relation between the features is fully mined so that the performance bottleneck problem caused by the too deep network can be alleviated, the feature representation capability of the image is great, and the robustness can be realized.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of computer vision, and more specifically relates to a method and system for image super-resolution reconstruction. Background technique

[0002] Although the early difference-based image super-resolution methods are simple and efficient, their effects in practical applications are greatly limited. Recently, methods based on deep convolutional neural networks have achieved performance beyond traditional image super-resolution methods. The earliest method based on deep convolutional neural network proposes a three-layer image super-resolution network, which includes four parts: shallow feature extraction, nonlinear mapping, reconstruction and upsampling. For the first time, deep learning Introduced into the image super-resolution task. Based on the above network structure, the image super-resolution network is gradually deepened. By introducing a residual learning structure, the super-resolution network can be deepen...
