Depth super-resolution (DSR) aims to recover a high-resolution (HR) depth map from its low-resolution (LR) counterpart. With color image guidance, this task is typically formulated as learning the residual between HR and LR in a low-dimensional feature space. However, this additive formulation is insufficient to accurately capture the complex relationship between HR and LR, especially under spatially varying degradations. In this paper, we introduce DegBins, a novel DSR framework that leverages degradation-driven binning to adaptively enhance residual modeling. Specifically, DegBins reformulates the regression-based DSR as a hybrid classification-regression problem, where the residual depth is represented as a linear combination of discrete depth bins weighted by their learned probability distribution, yielding more flexible and expressive representations. Furthermore, DegBins models the degradation relationship between HR and LR in a high-dimensional feature space, enabling adaptive bin range adjustment and probability optimization conditioned on local degradation characteristics. To progressively improve reconstruction quality, DegBins adopts a multi-stage refinement scheme, where each stage performs finer-grained bin partitioning and probability updating based on the former estimation. This coarse-to-fine design facilitates more accurate depth recovery, particularly in regions with severe degradations or complex structural variations. Extensive experiments across five benchmarks demonstrate that DegBins consistently outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of accuracy, robustness, and generalization.
Despite recent advances, single-image super-resolution (SR) remains challenging, especially in real-world scenarios with complex degradations. Diffusion-based SR methods, particularly those built on Stable Diffusion, leverage strong generative priors but commonly rely on text conditioning derived from semantic captioning. Such textual descriptions provide only high-level semantics and lack the spatially aligned visual information required for faithful restoration, leading to a representation gap between abstract semantics and spatially aligned visual details. To address this limitation, we propose GramSR, a one-step diffusion-based SR framework that replaces text conditioning with dense visual features extracted from the low-resolution input using a pre-trained DINOv3 encoder. GramSR adopts a three-stage LoRA architecture, where pixel-level, semantic-level, and texture-level LoRA modules are trained sequentially. The pixel-level module focuses on degradation removal using ℓ2 loss, the semantic-level module enhances perceptual details via LPIPS and CSD losses, and the texture-level module enforces feature correlation consistency through a Gram matrix loss computed from DINOv3 features. At inference, independent guidance scales enable flexible control over degradation removal, semantic enhancement, and texture preservation. Extensive experiments on standard SR benchmarks demonstrate that GramSR consistently outperforms existing one-step diffusion-based methods, achieving superior structural fidelity and texture realism.

Guided depth super-resolution (GDSR) reconstructs HR depth maps from LR inputs with HR RGB guidance. Existing methods either model each modality independently or rely on computationally expensive attention mechanisms with quadratic complexity, hindering the establishment of efficient and semantically interactive joint representations. In this paper, we observe that feature maps from different modalities exhibit semantic-level correlations during feature extraction. This motivates us to develop a more flexible approach enabling dense, semantically-aware deep interactions between modalities. To this end, we propose a novel GDSR framework centered around the Interactive State Space Model. Specifically, we design a cross-modal local scanning mechanism that enables fine-grained semantic interactions between RGB and depth features. Leveraging the Mamba architecture, our framework achieves global modeling with linear complexity. Furthermore, a cross-modal matching transform module is introduced to enhance interactive modeling quality by utilizing representative features from both modalities. Extensive experiments demonstrate competitive performance against state-of-the-art methods.
Diffusion-based methods demonstrate significant potential for remote sensing image super-resolution at large scaling factors, particularly in reference-based super-resolution (RefSR), where high-resolution reference images provide critical fine-grained texture priors. However, existing methods often suffer from a trade-off between over-reliance on reference information, which leads to texture artifacts, and under-utilization of such information, which results in insufficient detail recovery. To address these issues, we propose DS-DiT, a Decoupled Siamese Diffusion Transformer that decouples the interaction between low-resolution (LR) and reference (Ref) conditions within the attention mechanism. By allowing LR structural priors and Ref texture information to independently interact with the noisy latent, the framework effectively mitigates competition between the two conditional sources. To further compensate for the limited local modeling ability of global attention, we introduce a Patch-Level Weighting (PLW) module that adaptively modulates the fusion of conditional sources. In addition, the siamese architecture enables an inference-time autoguidance strategy that exploits the prediction discrepancy between strong and weak Ref conditions to improve generation quality without additional training. Experimental results across multiple datasets and scaling factors show that DS-DiT outperforms existing methods in both quantitative metrics and visual fidelity.
