    Abstract: The present invention discloses an image enlarging method having super resolution enlarging mechanism that includes the steps outlined below. An enlarging module of a neural network system receives an input image to generate an enlarged image. A front end convolutional path included in a neural network module of the neural network system receives the input image to perform convolution to generate a front end operation output result. Branching convolutional paths included in the neural network module respectively receive the front end operation output result to perform convolution to generate groups of output image residues. A mixing module of the neural network system weights the output image residues according to weighing settings related to image regions of the input image and mixes the weighted output image residues to generate a group of final output image residue such that an enhancement module enhances the enlarged image to generate an output enlarged image.
