The images in high resolution contain more useful information than the images in low resolution. Thus, high-resolution digital images are preferred over low-resolution images. Image super-resolution is one of the principal techniques for generating high-resolution images. The major advantages of super-resolution methods are that they are economical, independent of the image capture devices, and can be statically used. In this paper, a single-image super-resolution network model based on convolutional neural networks is proposed by combining conventional autoencoder and residual neural network approaches. A convolutional neural network-based dictionary method is used to train low-resolution input images for high-resolution images. In addition, a linear refined unit thresholds the convolutional neural network output to provide a better low-resolution image dictionary. Autoencoders aid in the removal of noise from images and the enhancement of their quality. Secondly, the residual neural network model processes it further to create a high-resolution image. The experimental results demonstrate the outstanding performance of our proposed method compared to other traditional methods. The proposed method produces clearer and more detailed high-resolution images, as they are important in real-life applications. Moreover, it has the advantage of combining convolutional neural network-based dictionary learning, autoencoder image enhancement, and noise removal. Furthermore, residual neural network training with improved preprocessing creates an efficient and versatile single-image super-resolution network.
