Abstract
It is important and necessary to obtain high-frequency information and texture details in the image reconstruction applications, such as image super-resolution. Hence, it is proposed the multi-scale fusion network (MCFN) in this paper. In the network, three pathways are designed for different receptive fields and scales, which are expected to obtain more texture details. Meanwhile, the local and global residual learning strategies are employed to prevent overfitting and to improve reconstruction quality. Compared with the classic convolutional neural network-based algorithms, the proposed method achieves better numerical and visual effects.
