BasicVSR++: Improving Video Super-Resolution with Enhanced Propagation and Alignment
Open accessAbstract
A recurrent structure is a popular framework choice for the task of video super-resolution. The state-of-the-art method BasicVSR adopts bidirectional propagation with feature alignment to effectively exploit information from the entire input video. In this study, we redesign BasicVsr by proposing second-order grid propagation and flow-guided deformable alignment. We show that by empowering the re-current framework with enhanced propagation and align-ment, one can exploit spatiotemporal information across misaligned video frames more effectively. The new components lead to an improved performance under a simi-lar computational constraint. In particular, our model Ba-sicVSR++ surpasses BasicVSR by a significant 0.82 dB in PSNR with similar number of parameters. BasicVSR++ is generalizable to other video restoration tasks, and obtains three champions and one first runner-up in NTIRE 2021 video restoration challenge.

Recent video demoiréing methods using PCD alignment and temporal consistency loss involve significant parameter overhead and are prone to training instability.
“However, these approaches typically involve significant parameter overhead and are prone to training instability [27, 28].”
From MoCHA-former: Moiré-Conditioned Hybrid Adaptive Transformer for Video Demoiréing (2026) · cites this paper as [27]
Section 3.2 says deformable alignment can be difficult to train and that instability can cause training to collapse. The Introduction and experimental comparison also describe sliding-window VSR models as less compact, with EDVR having more parameters than BasicVSR++. But the paper studies video super-resolution, not video demoiréing, and it does not attribute parameter overhead or training instability to temporal-consistency loss. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
