Abstract

SIGNIFICANCE: Researchers have made great progress in single-image super-resolution (SISR) using deep convolutional neural networks. However, in the field of leukocyte imaging, the performance of existing SISR methods is still limited as it fails to thoroughly explore the geometry and structural consistency of leukocytes. The inaccurate super-resolution (SR) results will hinder the pathological study of leukocytes, since the structure and cell lineage determine the types of leukocyte and will significantly affect the subsequent inspection.
