Dataset Preparation

We use DIV2K and Flickr2K as our training datasets (totally 3450 images).

To transform datasets to binary files for efficient IO, run:

python3 codes/scripts/create_lmdb.py

For evaluation of Isotropic Gaussian kernels (Gaussian8), we use five datasets, i.e., Set5, Set14, Urban100, BSD100 and Manga109.

To generate LRblur/LR/HR/Bicubic datasets paths, run:

python3 codes/scripts/generate_mod_blur_LR_bic.py

For evaluation of Anisotropic Gaussian kernels, we use DIV2KRK.

(You need to modify the file paths by yourself.)

Train

  1. The core algorithm is in codes/config/DCLS.
  2. Please modify codes/config/DCLS/options to set path, iterations, and other parameters...
  3. To train the model(s) in the paper, run below commands.

For single GPU:

cd codes/config/DCLS
python3 train.py -opt=options/setting1/train_setting1_x4.yml

For distributed training

cd codes/config/DCLS
python3 -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=4 --master_poer=4321 train.py -opt=options/setting1/train_setting1_x4.yml --launcher pytorch

Or choose training options use

cd codes/config/DCLS
sh demo.sh

Evaluation

To evalute our method, please modify the benchmark path and model path and run

cd codes/config/DCLS
python3 test.py -opt=options/setting1/test_setting1_x4.yml
