Abstract

Methods and systems for image upscaling are disclosed. In one embodiment, a low frequency band image intermediate is obtained from an input image. The input image is upsampled by a scale factor to obtain an upsampled image intermediate. A result image is estimated based at least in part on the upsampled image intermediate, the low frequency band image intermediate, and the input image, wherein the input image is of a smaller scale than the result image.
