A lightweight image super-resolution transformer trained on low-resolution images only has been introduced.Transformer architectures in single-image super-resolution (SISR) have a higher demand for training data compared to CNNs.This work utilizes a lightweight vision transformer model with LR-only training methods to address the LR-only SISR benchmark.The model outperforms state-of-the-art LR-only SISR methods and shows superior performance on benchmark datasets.
