A Feature Reuse Framework with Texture-adaptive Aggregation for Reference-based Super-ResolutionXiaoyong Mei, Yi Yang, Ming Li et al.
Reference-based super-resolution (RefSR) has gained considerable success in the field of super-resolution with the addition of high-resolution reference images to reconstruct low-resolution (LR) inputs with more high-frequency details, thereby overcoming some limitations of single image super-resolution (SISR). Previous research in the field of RefSR has mostly focused on two crucial aspects. The first is accurate correspondence matching between the LR and the reference (Ref) image. The second is the effective transfer and aggregation of similar texture information from the Ref images. Nonetheless, an important detail of perceptual loss and adversarial loss has been underestimated, which has a certain adverse effect on texture transfer and reconstruction. In this study, we propose a feature reuse framework that guides the step-by-step texture reconstruction process through different stages, reducing the negative impacts of perceptual and adversarial loss. The feature reuse framework can be used for any RefSR model, and several RefSR approaches have improved their performance after being retrained using our framework. Additionally, we introduce a single image feature embedding module and a texture-adaptive aggregation module. The single image feature embedding module assists in reconstructing the features of the LR inputs itself and effectively lowers the possibility of including irrelevant textures. The texture-adaptive aggregation module dynamically perceives and aggregates texture information between the LR inputs and the Ref images using dynamic filters. This enhances the utilization of the reference texture while reducing reference misuse. The source code is available at https://github.com/Yi-Yang355/FRFSR.

Beyond Overlap Metrics: Rewarding Reasoning and Preferences for Faithful Multi-Role Dialogue SummarizationXiaoyong Mei, Tingting Zuo, Da Chen et al.
Multi-role dialogue summarization requires modeling complex interactions among multiple speakers while preserving role-specific information and factual consistency. However, most existing methods optimize for automatic metrics such as ROUGE and BERTScore, which favor surface-level imitation of references rather than genuine gains in faithfulness or alignment with human preferences. We propose a novel framework that couples explicit cognitive-style reasoning with reward-based optimization for multi-role dialogue summarization. Our method first distills structured reasoning traces (e.g., step-by-step inferences and intermediate reflections) from a large teacher model and uses them as auxiliary supervision to initialize a reasoning-aware summarizer via staged supervised fine-tuning. It then applies GRPO with a dual-principle reward that blends metric-based signals with human-aligned criteria targeting key information coverage, implicit inference, factual faithfulness, and conciseness. Experiments on multilingual multi-role dialogue benchmarks show that our method matches strong baselines on ROUGE and BERTScore. Specifically, results on CSDS confirm the framework's stability in semantic consistency, while in-depth analysis on SAMSum demonstrates clear gains in factual faithfulness and model-based preference alignment. These findings underscore the value of reasoning-aware and preference-aware training for reliable dialogue summarization.
