Abstract

Improving visual quality is crucial as we navigate through the vast world of data. State-of-the-art (SOTA) artificial intelligence (AI) models provide highly effective solutions. Driven by the ever-growing demand for high-fidelity multimedia content, this research explores the groundbreaking capabilities of SOTA AI models to revolutionize video quality enhancement. Existing video capture methods often struggle with limitations in hardware, bandwidth, and compression, leading to subpar visual experiences. To address this challenge, we propose a novel Video Quality Enhancement Solution (VQES) that synergistically combines Google FILM for frame interpolation and Real-ESRGAN for image super-resolution. By applying these models to each video frame and integrating scalable post-processing techniques, a comprehensive VQES has been devised. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our VQES outperforms existing methods in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) improvement and user-perceived visual quality. By advancing video fidelity, this research paves the way for consistently immersive, informative, and enjoyable visual experiences.
