NTIRE 2026 Challenge Targets Infrared Image Super-Resolution
The NTIRE 2026 challenge on remote sensing infrared image super-resolution (x4) is introduced, aiming to recover high-resolution infrared images from low-resolution inputs via bicubic downsampling. A single-track setting was adopted to reflect infrared data characteristics. 115 participants registered, with 13 teams submitting valid entries. The report details challenge design, dataset, evaluation protocol, results, and representative methods, serving as a benchmark to advance research in this field.
