abstract
Remote sensing infrared image super-resolution aims to recover sharper thermal observations from low-resolution inputs while preserving target contours, scene layout, and radiometric stability. Unlike visible-image super-resolution, thermal imagery is weakly textured and more sensitive to unstable local sharpening, which makes complementary local and global modeling especially important. This paper presents our solution to the NTIRE 2026 Infrared Image Super-Resolution Challenge, a dual-branch system that combines a HAT-L branch and a MambaIRv2-L branch. The inference pipeline applies test-time local conversion on HAT, eight-way self-ensemble on MambaIRv2, and fixed equal-weight image-space fusion. We report both the official challenge score and a reproducible evaluation on 12 synthetic times-four thermal samples derived from Caltech Aerial RGB-Thermal, on which the fused output outperforms either single branch in PSNR, SSIM, and the overall Score. The results suggest that infrared super-resolution benefits from explicit complementarity between locally strong transformer restoration and globally stable state-space modeling.

Dehaze-then-Splat uses per-frame generative dehazing followed by physics-regularized 3D Gaussian Splatting to achieve 20.98 dB PSNR and 0.683 SSIM on the Akikaze scene, a 1.5 dB gain over baseline by mitigating cross-view inconsistencies.
A framework that combines MLLM-based image enhancement with a medium-aware 3D Gaussian Splatting model to reconstruct and render smoke scenes.
CLIP-guided selection of external data plus staged NAFNet training and inference fusion provides an effective pipeline for nighttime image dehazing in the NTIRE 2026 challenge.
A dual-branch training-free ensemble fuses a hybrid attention network with a Mamba-based model via weighted combination to enhance super-resolution PSNR on DIV2K x4.
SmokeGS-R uses refined dark channel prior for pseudo-clean supervision to train 3DGS geometry, followed by ensemble-based appearance harmonization, achieving PSNR 15.21 and outperforming baselines on smoke restoration challenge data.
Expanding training data diversity, adopting two-stage optimization, and applying geometric self-ensemble raises Restormer performance on Gaussian color denoising at sigma=50 by 3.366 dB PSNR on the NTIRE 2026 validation set.
The NTIRE 2026 challenge reports measurable progress in 3D reconstruction pipelines that handle real-world low-light and smoke degradation via the RealX3D benchmark.
