A lightweight hybrid perception enhancement network for infrared image super-resolution
摘要
Infrared image super-resolution (SR) remains a challenging task due to inherent limitations in existing approaches: convolutional neural network (CNN)-based approaches struggle with long-range dependency modeling, whereas transformer-based approaches are computationally expensive and tend to overlook fine local details. To address these issues, we propose a novel hybrid perception enhancement network (HPEN). Its core component is a hybrid perception enhancement block (HPEB), which effectively combines a token aggregation block (TAB) for global context modeling, a multi-scale feature enhancement block (MFEB) for local detail extraction, and a convolutional layer for feature refinement. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed HPEN achieves leading performance among compared methods. For the challenging
