Abstract

Recently, several models based on CNN architecture have achieved great result on Single Image Super-Resolution (SISR) problem. In this paper, we propose an image super-resolution method (SR) using a light inception layer in convolutional network (LICN). Due to the strong representation ability of our well-designed inception layer that can learn richer representation with less parameters, we can build our model with shallow architecture that can reduce the effect of vanishing gradients problem and save computational costs. Our model strike a balance between computational speed and the quality of the result. Compared with state-of-the-art result, we produce comparable or better results with faster computational speed.
