ThangkaDatasets_82688

In Tibetan culture, Thangka art holds a significant status and is known as the Encyclopedia of the Tibetan culture. This unique art form of painting encompasses multiple aspects of Tibetan history, politics, culture, and social life, and serves as precious material for studying Tibetan culture. Considering the lack of publicly available Thangka dataset, We constructed a thangka image super-resolution dataset in our research. We collected 128 ultra-high resolution Thangka images (size 12,869*16,710) from the internet and then cropped them to obtain 82,688 local pictures of Thangka images (size 512*512). The corresponding low-quality(LR) images are generated by applying bicubic downsampling to these high-quality(HR) images.
