The offical Tensorflow code is available here.

The code is tested on Python 3.7, PyTorch 1.1.0, TorchVision 0.3.0, but lower versions are also likely to work. During training on a single NVidia GTX1080 GPU, keeping a batch-size of 16 and image patches of resolution 96x96, the memory consumption was found to be around 2.5GB. The training time is under an hour.
Please download the training and testing datasets from here. Ensure you arrange the data by keeping training pairs of the LOL dataset under <PATH-TO-TRAIN-DIR>/data/our485/, and synthetic pairs under <PATH-TO-TRAIN-DIR>/data/syn/. You can then run-
$ python train.py \
--data_dir <PATH-TO-TRAIN-DIR> \
For sample testing/prediction, you can run-
$ python predict.py
There is a pre-trained checkpoint available in the repo. You may use it for sample testing or create your own after training as needed. The results are generated (by default) for the data present in ./data/test/low/ folder, and the results are saved (by default) in ./results/test/low/ folder.
