Abstract
This paper presents a novel non-local iterative back-projection (NLIBP) algorithm for image enlargement. The iterative back-projection (IBP) technique iteratively reconstructs a high resolution (HR) image from its blurred and downsampled low resolution (LR) counterpart. However, the conventional IBP methods often produce many ¿jaggy¿ and ¿ringing¿ artifacts because the reconstruction errors are back projected into the reconstructed image isotropically and locally. In natural images, usually there exist many non-local redundancies which can be exploited to improve the image reconstruction quality. Therefore, we propose to incorporate adaptively the non-local information into the IBP process so that the reconstruction errors can be reduced. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed NLBP can reconstruct faithfully the HR images with sharp edges and texture structures. It outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in both PSNR and visual perception.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
