## Model Weights
Download the checkpoints of RealDAN.

Put the downloaded checkpoints into [checkpoints](./checkpoints)


## Inference

For inference on Real-World images

```bash
cd codes/config/RealDAN
python3 inference.py \
--opt options/test/dan_edsr_gan_real.yml \
--input_dir=/dir/of/input/images \
--output_dir=/dir/of/saved/outputs
```

For inference on blurry images

```bash
cd codes/config/KernelDAN
python3 inference.py \
--opt options/test/x4.yml \
--input_dir=/dir/of/input/images \
--output_dir=/dir/of/saved/outputs
```
