Download the pretrained models from the link below and place them in the checkpoints/ directory:

Download from HuggingFace

1. Refer to the Real-RefRSSRD for downloading.
2. Use the script dataset/prepare_lr.py to upscale the LR images to match the size of HR.

1. Modify the validation dataset configuration in configs/dataset/reference_sr_test.yaml and update the pretrained model path in inference_refsr_batch.py.
2. Run the inference script:

python inference_refsr_batch.sh --ckpt path/to/pretrained/model --output path/tp/out/dir --global_ref_scale 1 --device cuda:0
