In implementations of super-resolution with reference images, a super-resolution image is generated based on reference images. Reference images are not constrained to have same or similar content as a low-resolution image being super-resolved. Texture features indicating high-frequency content are extracted into texture feature maps, and patches of texture feature maps of reference images are determined based on texture feature similarity. A content feature map indicating low-frequency content of an image is adaptively fused with a swapped texture feature map including patches of reference images with a neural network based on similarity of texture features. A user interfaces allows a user to select regions of multiple reference images to use for super-resolution. Hence, a super-resolution image can be generated with rich texture details incorporated from multiple reference images, even in the absence of reference images having similar content to an image being upscaled.
