An example system includes a feature extraction engine to identify features in a compressed image at a plurality of scales. The features include features corresponding to compression artifacts and features corresponding to image content to be upsampled. The feature extraction engine is to identify the features in the compressed image at a first scale based on noncontiguous pixels. The system also includes a reconstruction engine to refine the features corresponding to the image content to be upsampled and mitigate the features corresponding to the compression artifacts. The system includes an upsampling engine to generate an upsampled version of the compressed image based on the refined and mitigated features.

Image upsampling

An example system includes: a landmark detection engine to detect landmark positions of landmarks in images based on facial detection; an optical flow landmark engine to determine the landmark positions in the images based on optical flow of the landmarks between the images; a landmark difference engine to determine, for a landmark in a given image: a distance between a detected landmark position and an optical flow landmark position of the landmark; and a weighted landmark determination engine to determine, for a first and second image, a position for the landmark in the second image based on: a respective detected landmark position and a respective optical flow position of the landmark in the second image; and respective distances, determined with the landmark difference engine, between a first detected landmark position of the landmark in the first image and respective optical flow landmark positions for the first and second images.
