Multiple methods have been applied to this problem in the past, with varying degrees of success. Recently, methods using deep learning such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) and Variational Auto-Encoders (VAE) in particular have proven to be extremely effective. However, most of the present methods either create a blurry output, lacking fine details, or use extremely heavy models to achieve better results. We introduce a novel, lightweight GAN architecture for 4× super-resolution of images, which builds on previous methods, showing high quality of features both qualitatively and quantitatively. To achieve this, we use dilated convolutions in our generator architecture, a Markovian discriminator, a modified loss function and a training process more typical of a conditional GAN (cGAN). For testing our results qualitatively, we use Mean Opinion Score (MOS). The obtained MOS show the effectiveness of our model at generating visually superior images.
