AI image and video enhancement technologies

Overview

Artificial intelligence is being applied to improve the quality of digital visual media through upscaling and restoration. In image processing, new methodologies and software tools, such as those from Adobe, allow for generative upscaling, repairing edges, and changing aspect ratios. Professional workflows for images emphasize structured pipelines that include content classification and quality control to prevent distortions in fine lines or text.

In the realm of video, AI tools are being used to restore aging films and improve low resolution footage by reducing noise and upscaling resolution. While these technologies can mitigate issues like grainy shadows or soft details, they are limited by the original source material. Research indicates that while AI can manage local presentation problems, it cannot reliably restore missing information or invent performances that were not originally recorded.
