Real-world image super-resolution (Real-ISR) must handle complex degradations and inherent reconstruction ambiguities. While generative models have improved perceptual quality, a key trade-off remains with computational cost. One-step diffusion models offer speed but often produce structural inaccuracies due to distillation artifacts. To address this, we propose a novel SR framework that enhances a one-step diffusion model using a ControlNet mechanism for semantic edge guidance. This integrates edge information to provide dynamic structural control during single-pass inference. We also introduce a hybrid loss combining L2, LPIPS, and an edge-aware AME loss to optimize for pixel accuracy, perceptual quality, and geometric precision. Experiments show our method effectively improves structural integrity and realism while maintaining the efficiency of one-step generation, achieving a superior balance between output quality and inference speed. The results of test datasets will be published at https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1amddXQ5orIyjbxHgGpzqFHZ6KTolinJF?usp=drive_link and the related code will be published at https://github.com/ARBEZ-ZEBRA/SCEESR.

The project has carried out the re-optimization of image coloring in accordance with the existing Autocolorization direction model DDColor. For the experiments on the existing weights of DDColor, we found that it has limitations in some frequency bands and the color cast problem caused by insufficient input dimension. We construct two optimization schemes and combine them, which achieves the performance improvement of indicators such as PSNR and SSIM of the images after DDColor.
