Abstract
The deep learning technique was used to increase the performance of single image super-resolution (SISR). However, most existing CNN-based SISR approaches primarily focus on establishing deeper or larger networks to extract more significant high-level features. Usually, the pixel-level loss between the target high-resolution image and the estimated image is used, but the neighbor relations between pixels in the image are seldom used. On the other hand, according to observations, a pixel's neighbor relationship contains rich information about the spatial structure, local context, and structural knowledge. Based on this fact, in this paper, we utilize pixel's neighbor relationships in a different perspective, and we propose the differences of neighboring pixels to regularize the CNN by constructing a graph from the estimated image and the ground-truth image. The proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in terms of quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the benchmark datasets.
