AIM-2019 Output Images (DIV8K Test Set)

• 16✕ Test Set BOE-Perceptual (1^st place) (11GB)
• 16✕ Test Set BOE-Fidelity (5^th place) (11GB)

AIM-2019 Model Files

• BOE-Perceptual (1^st place) (112.7MB)
• BOE-Fidelity (5^th place) (1.1GB)

Instructions:

• Download model files using ./download_models.sh or links above.

• Copy input images in input (provided as empty directory).

• To upscale images 16x run: python run.py.

  Output images will come out in output (automatically created and cleaned if already exists).

• The GPU number, model file and memory target can be changed in run.py (in comment "CHANGE HERE").

Requirements:

• Python 3, PyTorch, NumPy, Pillow, OpenCV
