Super-resolution benchmarking

Benchmarking

The super-resolution module contains sample codes for benchmarking, in order to compare different models and algorithms. Here is presented a sample code for performing benchmarking, and then a few benchmarking results are collected. It was performed on an Intel i7-9700K CPU on an Ubuntu 18.04.02 OS.

Explanation

  1. Read and downscale the image

    int width = img.cols - (img.cols % scale);
    int height = img.rows - (img.rows % scale);
    Mat cropped = img(Rect(0, 0, width, height));
    Mat img_downscaled;
    cv::resize(cropped, img_downscaled, cv::Size(), 1.0 / scale, 1.0 / scale);

    Resize the image by the scaling factor. Before that a cropping is necessary, so the images will align.

  2. Set the model

    DnnSuperResImpl sr;
    sr.readModel(path);
    sr.setModel(algorithm, scale);
    sr.upsample(img_downscaled, img_new);

    Instantiate a dnn super-resolution object. Read and set the algorithm and scaling factor.

  3. Perform benchmarking

    double psnr = PSNR(img_new, cropped);
    double ssim = mean(cv::Vec3f(q[0], q[1], q[2]))[0];
    cv::Scalar compute(InputArray cmp) CV_OVERRIDE
    Computes SSIM.
    InputOutputArray noArray()
    Returns an empty InputArray or OutputArray.

    Calculate PSNR and SSIM. Use OpenCVs PSNR (core opencv) and SSIM (contrib) functions to compare the images. Repeat it with other upscaling algorithms, such as other DL models or interpolation methods (eg. bicubic, nearest neighbor).
