You Only Landmark Once: Lightweight U-Net Face Super Resolution with YOLO-World Landmark Heatmaps

Anna Briotto, Endi Hysa, Lamberto Ballan, Marco Fiorucci, Riccardo Carraro

A lightweight U-Net reconstructs 128x128 faces from 16x16 inputs by weighting its loss with YOLO-World landmark heatmaps.

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Experiments on the aligned CelebA dataset demonstrate that the proposed loss consistently improves quantitative metrics and produces sharper, more realistic reconstructions.

C2weakest assumption

YOLO-World heatmaps generated directly from severely degraded 16x16 inputs remain accurate enough to serve as reliable spatial weights for the reconstruction loss without introducing misalignment artifacts.

C3one line summary

Lightweight U-Net for 8x face super-resolution uses YOLO-World landmark heatmaps as spatial loss weights to improve reconstruction on CelebA without extra networks or adversarial training.
