Abstract: | Recently, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have achieved great success in Single Image Super-Resolution (SISR). In particular, the recursive networks are now widely used. However, existing recursion-based SISR networks can only make use of multi-scale features in a layer-wise manner. In this paper, a Deep Recursive Multi-Scale Feature Fusion Network (DRMSFFN) is proposed to address this issue. Specifically, we propose a Recursive Multi-Scale Feature Fusion Block (RMSFFB) to make full use of multi-scale features. Besides, a Progressive Feature Fusion (PFF) technique is proposed to take advantage of the hierarchical features from the RMSFFB in a global manner. At the reconstruction stage, we use a deconvolutional layer to upscale the feature maps to the desired size. Extensive experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed DRMSFFN in comparison with the state-of-the-art methods in both quantitative and qualitative evaluations. |
