Abstract
Abstract Given that super‐resolution (SR) aims to recover lost information, and low‐resolution (LR) images in real‐world conditions might be corrupted with multiple degradations, considering basic bicubic down‐sampling as the sole degradation significantly limits the performance of most existing SR models. This paper presents a model for simultaneous super‐resolution and blind additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) denoising with two components (netdeg and netSR) that is based on a generative adversarial network (GAN) to achieve detailed results. netdeg, featuring residual and innovative cost‐effective ghost residual blocks with a frequency separation module for obtaining long‐range information, blindly restores a clean version of the LR image. netSR leverages slim ghost full‐frequency residual blocks to process low‐frequency (LF) and high‐frequency (HF) information via static large convolutions and pixel‐wise highlighted input‐adaptive dynamic convolutions, respectively. To address the susceptibility of dynamic layers to noise and preserve feature diversity while reducing model’s costs, static and dynamic layer features are combined and highlighted. Diverse and non‐redundant features are then processed using ghost‐style blocks. The proposed model achieves comparable SR results in bicubic down‐sampling scenarios, outperform existing SR methods in the complex task of concurrent SR and AWGN denoising, and demonstrate robustness in handling images corrupted with varying levels of AWGN.

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
