Dr. Yaniv Romano and his co-authors from Google Research, Peyman Milanfar, and John Isidoro, has been selected to receive the 2021 IEEE Signal Processing Society Best Paper Award for the following paper:

Yaniv Romano, John Isidoro, and Peyman Milanfar, “RAISR: Rapid and Accurate Image Super-Resolution,” IEEE Transactions on Computational Imaging, January 2017.

RAISR: Rapid and Accurate Image Super Resolution | IEEE Journals & Magazine | IEEE Xplore

The above super-resolution (image upscaling) technology that Yaniv and his co-authors invented is being used in Google’s flagship products (e.g., Pixel 2/XL phones), increasing the quality of billions of images per day!

The award ceremony is due in ICASSP 2022, where the 2022-23 SPS President, Athina Petropulu, will present Yaniv and his co-authors with this award.
