Uncertainty-Guided Latent Diffusion Models for Faithful Super Resolution

UGDiff introduces an uncertainty-guided diffusion paradigm for single-image super-resolution, aiming to improve the perception‑distortion trade‑off. The method estimates reconstruction uncertainty of latent features from a high‑fidelity image and uses this uncertainty, along with diffusion sampler posterior variance, to selectively restore high‑frequency details in uncertain regions while preserving fidelity elsewhere. Experiments show that UGDiff outperforms state‑of‑the‑art diffusion‑based SR methods.
