Closed weights Seoul National University June 2017

No estimate

No hardware requirements for this model

The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.

What the numbers mean

What this model is

EDSR was published by Seoul National University, in Korea (Republic of), in June 2017. academia is the category the publisher falls under.

It works in Vision, Image generation, and is recorded as doing image super-resolution.

Because the weights are not available, none of the hardware figures elsewhere on this site apply to it.

What went into building it

It is tracked in the underlying dataset for one reason in particular: highly cited.

Answers

EDSR — common questions

01

Is EDSR open source?

The licensing for EDSR was never recorded in our source data. We treat unstated licensing as closed, because an unrecorded licence is not one to rely on.

02

How many parameters does EDSR have?

No parameter count has been published for EDSR, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.

03

Who created EDSR?

EDSR was published by Seoul National University, based in Korea (Republic of), categorised as academia.

04

When was EDSR released?

EDSR was published in June 2017. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

05

What is EDSR used for?

EDSR works in Vision, Image generation, and is recorded as handling image super-resolution. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.

06

What GPU do I need to run EDSR?

None. EDSR is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.

Looking at it from the other side?

This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
