Abstract

A video super resolution method comprises successively executing instances of a first plurality of layers (SISR) of a neural network for generating a first image (St) at a higher resolution than an input image frame (Xt); successively executing a second plurality of layers (VSR) of the neural network for generating a second image (Vt) at the higher resolution, at least one of the second plurality of layers generating intermediate output information (Ht), the second plurality of layers taking into account an output image (Yt−1) at the higher resolution generated by a previous instance of the network from a previous input image frame (Xt−1) and intermediate output information (Ht−1) generated by the second plurality of layers of the previous instance, and executing a third plurality of layers for combining the first (St) and second (Vt) images to produce an output image (Yt) for the instance of the network.
