Note

Baseline Paper and network

Four kinds of deep upsampling methods:

  1. interpolation to large size first, then pass conv
  2. conv first, finally upsampling
  3. conv and upsampling iteratively, gradually grow to SR size
  4. [This paper] iteratively upsample and downsample, and finally concat all features after upsampling.

Improvement and benefit

Use dense connection to enhance the original DBPN, named as D-DBPN.

The details of up and down module:

T is the number of up and down module set.

  • M: T=4
  • L: T=6

My Summary

  1. For each time when passing upsampling and down-sampling stage, the feature going to be processed is becoming stronger and having richer information.
    • But going through so many stages looks like abundant, so in SRFBN(cvpr 19), the author simplify this progress to a RNN like structure to decrease the model size.
  2. Upsampling helps to enlarge the size of the object in origin feature which can help the convolutional layer to "see more clearly", and downsampling helps to enlarge the receptive field size to cover bigger size object.
  3. Dense connection doesn't help a lot. The meaning of residence shows when the inner layers haven't learn features well and residence can replace the weak feature to maintain the representative ability.
