This paper specifically addresses the challenge of guided thermal image super-resolution, where a low-resolution thermal image is enhanced using a high-resolution visible spectrum image. We propose a new strategy that enhances outcomes from current guided super-resolution methods. This is achieved by transforming the initial guiding data into a representation resembling a thermal-like image, which is more closely in sync with the intended output. Experimental results with upscale factors of 8 and 16, demonstrate the outstanding performance of our approach in guided thermal image super-resolution obtained by mapping the original guiding information to a thermal-like image representation.", optnote="MSIAU", optnote="exported from refbase (http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/show.php?record=3998), last updated on Fri, 02 Feb 2024 11:02:09 +0100", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neucom.2023.127197" }
