Abstract: We propose deep convolutional neural network (CNN) based super-resolution for 360 (equirectangular) panorama images used by virtual reality (VR) display devices (e.g. VR glasses). Proposed super-resolution adopts the recent CNN architecture proposed in (Dong et al., 2016) and adapts it for equirectangular panorama images which have specific characteristics as compared to standard cameras (e.g. projection distortions). We demonstrate how adaptation can be performed by optimizing the trained network input size and fine-tuning the network parameters. In our experiments with 360 panorama images of rich natural content CNN based super-resolution achieves average PSNR improvement of 1.36 dB over the baseline (bicubic interpolation) and 1.56 dB by our equirectangular specific adaptation.
