The higher the resolution of the image, the higher the satisfaction of the viewers of the image, and the super-resolution imaging has a considerable increase in research value among the fields of computer vision and image processing. In this study, the main features of low-resolution image LR are extracted mainly using deep learning super-resolution models. It learns and reconstructs the extracted features, and focuses on reconstruction-based algorithms that generate high-resolution image HR. In this paper, we investigate SRCNN and VDSR in a super-resolution algorithm model based on reconstruction. The structure and algorithm process of the SRCNN and VDSR model are briefly introduced, and the multi-channel and special form are also examined in the improved performance evaluation function, and understand the performance of each algorithm through experiments. In the experiment, an experiment was performed to compare the results of the SRCNN and VDSR models with the peak signal-to-noise ratio and image structure similarity, so that the results can be easily judged.

Meteorology and climate are closely related to human life. By using high-resolution weather data, services that are useful for real-life are available, and the need to produce high-resolution weather data is increasing. We propose a method for super-resolution temperature data using SRCNN. To evaluate the super-resolution temperature data, the temperature for a non-observation point is obtained by using the inverse distance weighting method, and the super-resolution temperature data using interpolation is compared with the super-resolution temperature data using SRCNN. We construct an SRCNN model suitable for super-resolution of temperature data and perform super-resolution of temperature data. As a result, the prediction performance of the super-resolution temperature data using SRCNN was about 10.8% higher than that using interpolation.

본 논문에서는 최신의 비디오 코덱 표준인 HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding)의 화면 내 예측 부호화의 성능 향상을 위하여 SRCNN(Super Resolution Convolutional Neural Networks)을 이용하는 방법을 제안한다. SRCNN 은 비교적 최신 기술인 CNN(Convolutional Neural Network)을 사용하여 이미지를 추가적인 데이터 없이 보간 하여 해상도를 증가시키는 기술이다. HEVC 에서는 화면 내 예측의 잔차신호를 부호화 하기 위해 많은 비트를 소모하는데, 본 논문에서는 이 잔차신호들의 해상도를 낮추어 부호화 되는 비트를 줄이며, 복호화기에서 SRCNN 을 이용하여 원래의 해상도로 복원을 수행하여 압축성능을 향상 시키는 방법에 대하여 제안한다. 제안하는 기술은 HM 16.6 에 구현하였으며, CNN 트레이닝에 Caffe 라이브러리를 사용하였다.

Ultrasound is widely used in the medical field for non-destructive and non-invasive disease diagnosis. In order to improve the disease diagnosis accuracy of diagnostic medical images, improving spatial resolution is a very important factor. In this study, we aim to model the super resolution convolutional neural network (SRCNN) algorithm in ultrasound images and analyze its applicability in the medical diagnostic field. The study was conducted as an experimental study using Field II simulation and open source clinical liver hemangioma ultrasound imaging. The proposed SRCNN algorithm was modeled so that end-to-end learning can be applied from low resolution (LR) to high resolution. As a result of the simulation, we confirmed that the full width at half maximum in the phantom image using a Field II program was improved by 41.01% compared to LR when SRCNN was used. In addition, the peak to signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index (SSIM) evaluation results showed that SRCNN had the excellent value in both simulated and real liver hemangioma ultrasound images. In conclusion, the applicability of SRCNN to ultrasound images has been proven, and we expected that proposed algorithm can be used in various diagnostic medical fields.

In the image object classification problem, low-resolution images may have a negative impact on the classification result, especially when the classification method, such as a convolutional neural network (CNN) model, is trained on a high-resolution (HR) image dataset. In this paper, we analyze the behavior of applying a classical super-resolution (SR) method such as bicubic interpolation, and a deep CNN model such as SRCNN to enhance low-resolution (LR) weeds images used for classification. Using an HR dataset, we first train a CNN model for weeds image classification with a default input size of 128 × 128. Then, given an LR weeds image, we rescale to default input size by applying the bicubic interpolation or the SRCNN model. We analyze these two approaches on the Chonnam National University (CNU) weeds dataset and find that SRCNN is suitable for the image size is smaller than 80 × 80, while bicubic interpolation is convenient for a larger image.

High-quality computed tomography (CT) images enable precise lesion detection and accurate diagnosis. A lot of studies have been performed to improve CT image quality while reducing radiation dose. Recently, deep learning-based techniques for improving CT image quality have been developed and show superior performance compared to conventional techniques. In this study, a super-resolution convolutional neural network (SRCNN) model was used to improve the spatial resolution of CT images, and image quality according to the hyperparameters, which determine the performance of the SRCNN model, was evaluated in order to verify the effect of hyperparameters on the SRCNN model. Profile, structural similarity (SSIM), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) were measured to evaluate the performance of the SRCNN model. The results showed that the performance of the SRCNN model was improved with an increase of the numbers of epochs and training sets, and the learning rate needed to be optimized for obtaining acceptable image quality. Therefore, the SRCNN model with optimal hyperparameters is able to improve CT image quality.

최근 Convolutional neural networks(CNN) 기반의 초해상화 기법인 Super-Resolution Convolutional Neural Networks (SRCNN) 이 좋은 PSNR 성능을 발휘하는 것으로 보고되었다 [1]. 하지만 많은 제안 방법들이 고주파 성분을 복원하는데 한계를 드러내는 것처럼, SRCNN 도 고주파 성분 복원에 한계점을 지니고 있다. 또한 SRCNN 의 네트워크 층을 깊게 만들면 좋은 PSNR 성능을 발휘하는 것으로 널리 알려져 있지만, 네트워크의 층을 깊게 하는 것은 네트워크 파라미터 학습을 어렵게 하는 경향이 있다. 네트워크의 층을 깊게 할 경우, gradient 값이 아래(역방향) 층으로 갈수록 발산하거나 0 으로 수렴하여, 네트워크 파라미터 학습이 제대로 되지 않는 현상이 발생하기 때문이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 네트워크 층을 깊게 하는 대신에, 입력을 다중 채널로 구성하여, 네트워크에 고주파 성분에 관한 추가적인 정보를 주는 방법을 제안하였다. 많은 초해상화 기법들이 고주파 성분의 복원 능력이 부족하다는 점에 착안하여, 우리는 네트워크가 고주파 성분에 관한 많은 정보를 필요로 한다는 것을 가정하였다. 따라서 우리는 네트워크의 입력을 고주파 성분이 여러 가지 강도로 입력되도록 저해상도 입력 영상들을 구성하였다. 또한 잔차신호 네트워크(residual networks)를 도입하여, 네트워크 파라미터를 학습할 때 고주파 성분의 복원에 집중할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 논문의 효율성을 검증하기 위하여 set5 데이터와 set14 데이터에 관하여 실험을 진행하였고, SRCNN 과 비교하여 set5 데이터에서는 2, 3, 4 배에 관하여 각각 평균 0.29, 0.35, 0.17dB 의 PSNR 성능 향상이 있었으며, set14 데이터에서는 3 배의 관하여 평균 0.20dB 의 PSNR 성능 향상이 있었다.

Deep-learning-based Super-Resolution (SR) methods were evaluated to reconstruct pressure fields with a high resolution from low-resolution images taken from a coarse grid simulation. In addition to a canonical SRCNN(super-resolution convolutional neural network) model, two modified models from SRCNN, adding an activation function (ReLU or Sigmoid function) to the output layer, were considered in the present study. High resolution images obtained by three models were more vivid and reliable qualitatively, compared with a conventional super-resolution method of bicubic interpolation. A quantitative comparison of statistical similarity showed that SRCNN model with Sigmoid function achieved best performance with less dependency on original resolution of input images.
