MambaOSR: Leveraging Spatial-Frequency Mamba for Distortion-Guided Omnidirectional Image Super-Resolution
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Omnidirectional image super-resolution (ODISR) is critical for VR/AR applications, as high-quality 360° visual content significantly enhances immersive experiences. However, existing ODISR methods suffer from limited receptive fields and high computational complexity, which restricts their ability to model long-range dependencies and extract global structural features. Consequently, these limitations hinder the effective reconstruction of high-frequency details. To address these issues, we propose a novel Mamba-based ODISR network, termed MambaOSR, which consists of three key modules working collaboratively for accurate reconstruction. Specifically, we first introduce a spatial-frequency visual state space model (SF-VSSM) to capture global contextual information via dual-domain representation learning, thereby enhancing the preservation of high-frequency details. Subsequently, we design a distortion-guided module (DGM) that leverages distortion map priors to adaptively model geometric distortions, effectively suppressing artifacts resulting from equirectangular projections. Finally, we develop a multi-scale feature fusion module (MFFM) that integrates complementary features across multiple scales, further improving reconstruction quality. Extensive experiments conducted on the SUN360 dataset demonstrate that our proposed MambaOSR achieves a 0.16 dB improvement in WS-PSNR and increases the mutual information by 1.99% compared with state-of-the-art methods, significantly enhancing both visual quality and the information richness of omnidirectional images.
