## Abstract (arXiv)

Cost-and-Quality (CQ) controllability in arbitrary-scale super-resolution is crucial. Existing methods predict Fourier components one by one using a recurrent neural network. However, this approach leads to performance degradation and inefficiency due to independent prediction. This paper proposes predicting multiple components jointly to improve both quality and efficiency.
