arXiv:2608. 09133v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image super-resolution (SR) with large generative models has recently achieved remarkable perceptual quality, yet maintaining fidelity to the LR observation remains challenging.
The paper proposes that super‑resolution should be performed in a latent space that is close to the manifold of high‑resolution images, rather than in reconstruction‑oriented or pixel spaces. By using the latent space of 23 fused layers of a frozen DINOv3‑L model, degraded images are embedded near this manifold, enabling a 415M decoder (RAESR) to map them back and decode to pixels in a single pass. RAESR achieves the best fidelity–perception trade‑off on several benchmarks while running at 37 ms per 512×512 image on a single H20 GPU, outperforming models that use a VAE latent substrate.

arXiv:2608. 10544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image restoration is fundamentally constrained by the tradeoff between distortion and perception: minimizing pixel-wise error yields over-smoothed results, whereas optimizing for perceptual realism often introduces structural deviations.
The paper introduces QuADA-GS, a method for Arbitrary-Scale Super-Resolution that dynamically densifies 2D Gaussian splatting based on low‑resolution input. By allocating Gaussians adaptively to structurally complex regions and employing a sparse communication mechanism, it balances high visual fidelity with lower computational cost. Experiments show that this approach achieves a competitive trade‑off between quality and efficiency for super‑resolution tasks.
arXiv:2607. 15711v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion-based methods have achieved impressive performance in real-world image super-resolution (Real-ISR) by leveraging large pre-trained stable diffusion (SD) models as powerful generative priors.
The paper presents a zero‑shot framework for high‑throughput generative video super‑resolution (VSR) that operates on a single high‑end consumer GPU without retraining. It decouples spatial upscaling, handled by a time‑distilled one‑step diffusion backbone, from temporal stabilization, achieved with a lightweight pretrained flow‑based interpolator. A resolution‑aware hybrid attention scheme replaces high‑resolution global attention with neighborhood attention to improve scalability, achieving up to ~32 FPS at 720p and a 44% speedup at 4K on an NVIDIA RTX 4090, while maintaining competitive perceptual quality and temporal consistency on standard VSR benchmarks.
