Example methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for processing images by using a convolutional neural network (CNN) are described herein. In one example, an original image is received from an image source. The original image has a predefined size and high resolution, and is represented in a first color space supported by the image source. Then, an intermediate image is obtained by downscaling the original image in the first color space, and converted from the first color space to a second color space. Next, a restored image is obtained by upscaling the converted intermediate image to the predefined size of the original image. Upscaling is performed by using the CNN on the original image and the converted intermediate image as inputs and return the restored image. The CNN is pre-trained on a set of triplets, comprising a past original image, a converted past intermediate image and a past restored image.
