# Collabora takes first place at ICME 2025 Grand Challenge

**[Collabora Blog](https://daily.dev/sources/collabora)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Collabora's machine learning team, led by Marcus Edel, Vineet Suryan, and Aaron Boxer, won first place in Track 3 of the ICME 2025 Grand Challenge on Video Super-Resolution for Video Conferencing. Their winning submission introduces a mixture-of-experts framework for screen content super-resolution, combining the Implicit Transformer Super-Resolution Network (ITSRN) with a diffusion-based text refinement stage enhanced by LLM-assisted OCR correction. The team presented this work at IEEE ICME in Nantes, France.

## Questions this post answers

### What approach did the winning submission use for screen content super-resolution at ICME 2025 Track 3?

The winning submission combined a mixture-of-experts framework pairing the Implicit Transformer Super-Resolution Network (ITSRN) for restoring general image structures with a diffusion-based text refinement stage inspired by TextSSR. The text refinement stage was further enhanced with Large Language Model-assisted OCR correction, targeting high-quality upscaling in bandwidth-constrained screen-sharing scenarios.
