We propose a two-stage method for face hallucination. First, we generate
facial components of the input image using CNNs. These components represent the
basic facial structures. Second, we synthesize fine-grained facial structures
from high resolution training images. The details of these structures are
transferred into facial components for enhancement. Therefore, we generate
facial components to approximate ground truth global appearance in the first
stage and enhance them through recovering details in the second stage. The
experiments demonstrate that our method performs favorably against
state-of-the-art methodsComment: IJCAI 2017. Project page:
