Abstract
Although DCN-based super-resolution (DCN-SR) techniques have shown impressive performance, the working mechanism has not been completely understood and DCN-SR methods still produce some artefacts. In this paper, we analyze the working mechanisms of DCN-SR methods. We derive mathematical formulations of the DCN-SR methods and provide some experimental analyses, which show that the effective receptive fields of the DCN-SR methods are considerably smaller than the theoretical receptive fields. Based on the mathematical formulations, experiments were performed. The results indicates that current DCN-SR methods may have some fundamental problems and new types of DCN structures are needed for reliable super-resolution performance.
