“AI”
Sharpening, Denoising and upscaling barely count as machine learning. They don’t require AI neural networks.
Sharpening and denoising don't. But upscalers worth anything do require neural nets.
Anything that uses a neural network is the definition of AI.
Not true
Company I used to work for had excellent upscalers running on FPGAs that they developed 20+ years ago.
The algorithms have been there for years, just AI gives it bit of marketing sprinkle to something that has been a solved problem for years.
Depends on what you're trying to upscale.
