The key is to find the right proxy tasks and regularization so that the representations can be optimized at test time without using any golden labels. Thanks so much to Miriam Cha, @sarameghanbeery.bsky.social and the whole organizing team for the invitation to present our work. [3/n]

Second, we propose a test-time training (TTT) approach as an alternative way of making use of multiple modalities at test time. We show that multimodal pretext tasks can serve as a test-time adaptation signal. [3/n]

Hence, our method is not prone to hallucinations, as is often the case with generative approaches. We tested SuperF on both ground-level image bursts and satellite imagery. Ultimately, Sander built a demo app to super-resolve Sentinel-2 satellite images for any place on Earth - try it out. [4/n]

Nico Lang @nicolang.bsky.social · 16/12/2025
In this way, SuperF leverages the continuous nature of INRs for both the sub-pixel alignment and signal reconstruction. Our test-time optimization approach operates solely on low-resolution images and does not require any training on high-resolution data. [3/n]

Nico Lang @nicolang.bsky.social · 16/12/2025
Building on the established idea of utilising sub-pixel shifts from repeated observations, we developed SuperF, an approach based on implicit neural representations (INRs) that jointly aligns multiple low-resolution images while representing the underlying high-resolution signal. [2/n]

Nico Lang @nicolang.bsky.social · 16/12/2025
What if we could see between the pixels? We’ve been working on a new approach to super-resolve images by combining multiple low-resolution views of the same scene. Project page: sjyhne.github.io/superf/ Preprint: www.arxiv.org/abs/2512.09115 Demo: huggingface.co/spaces/sjyhn... Thread [1/n] 👇
