Evidencepartial
we propose InstaVSR, a lightweight diffusion framework for efficient video super-resolution.
Implicationpartial
The abstract explicitly states this as the core proposal of the paper.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
InstaVSR combines three ingredients: (1) a pruned one-step diffusion backbone that removes several costly components from conventional diffusion-based VSR pipelines, (2) recurrent training with flow-guided temporal regularization to improve frame-to-frame stability, and (3) dual-space adversarial learning in latent and pixel spaces to preserve perceptual quality after backbone simplification.
Implicationpartial
The abstract clearly lists these three components as the key ingredients of InstaVSR.
Verificationpartial

Evidencepartial
On an NVIDIA RTX 4090, InstaVSR processes a 30-frame video at 2K×2K resolution in under one minute with only 7 GB of memory usage
Implicationpartial
This is a specific performance metric provided in the abstract, directly verifiable with the stated hardware and video parameters.
