Residual-Dense-Network-Trained-with-cGAN-for-Super-Resolution

This repository is as a research project in the field of super resolution. It uses RDN as the generator and spectral norm is used in discriminator.

Introduction

This is a trial for super-resolution

The residual dense network has many advantages for reconstructing SR images, and we use GANs to enhance RDN. The core idea is from the following two papers:

1. Residual Dense Network for Image Super-Resolution
2. cGANs with projection discriminator

Generator: Residual Dense Network

Discriminator: cGAN projection

Results

These results is just trained about 200,000 iterations (full: 600,000) with batch size of 16.
