Researchers have developed a new deep learning method using diffusion-based Schrödinger Bridges (SBs) to improve the resolution of lunar topography models. This approach connects low-resolution topography data with high-resolution data, incorporating optical imagery for enhanced accuracy. The method was trained on a novel dataset of rendered lunar topography, emulating imagery from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Narrow Angle Camera, and offers pixel-level uncertainty in reconstructions.
