Gpen-bfr-2048.pth [ Newest ]
. It is widely regarded by enthusiasts as a superior alternative to other popular models like GFPGAN and CodeFormer for high-quality, denoised inputs.
The suffix of the file name tells us two critical things about its capabilities: gpen-bfr-2048.pth
The 2048 checkpoint is the result of the 1024‑pixel model on a progressively‑grown version of StyleGAN2 (weights duplicated to support 2048 output). No additional data beyond the synthetic pipeline was introduced; the model simply learns to extrapolate the StyleGAN2 latent space to higher spatial resolution. gpen-bfr-2048.pth
