Published by WaifuFinder. `manifest.json` pins 3 model files by SHA-256;
the app verifies every one of them, plus the licence, attribution and validation files,
before installation.
# Real-ESRGAN x2plus — optimized Core ML
Self-contained framewise 2× upscaler for
[WaifuFinder](https://github.com/alastorid/WaifuFinder). WaifuFinder downloads
these files directly: no Python, no source checkpoint, no conversion step.
## Contents
| Path | What |
| --- | --- |
| `RealESRGANValidated.mlpackage` | Converted, original-model-validated model |
| `manifest.json` | Architecture, original fingerprints, SHA-256 of every file |
| `validation.json` | Original-model parity, tile and product checks |
| `LICENSE` | Real-ESRGAN weights, BSD 3-Clause |
| `BasicSR-LICENSE` | Reference architecture, Apache-2.0 |
| `NOTICE` | Attribution and conversion summary |
The app compiles the package once at install time, on the machine that will run
it, because compiled Core ML is tied to the local compiler and macOS version.
## What "optimized" means
The network is the unmodified Real-ESRGAN x2plus. The conversion:
- fuses the first convolution into the following stage;
- expresses 256, 384 and 522 pixel inputs as enumerated Core ML shapes, so a
small tile is upscaled at its own size instead of being padded to 522;
- records the measured parity against the original PyTorch network in the model
metadata, and the app refuses to use a package that is not that validated one.
`validation.json` records the measurements: maximum absolute error against the
original network stays at or below 0.0069 across every supported input size,
against a 0.01 acceptance bound.
