BSRGAN or real-ESRGAN

38/0.91

37.8/0.91

High PSNR (Real-ESRGAN), Similar SSIM,Low NIQE, Low BRISQUE.

Choice depends on the relative importance of: PSNR,SSIM, BRISQUE and NIQE.

Malawi

BSRGAN or real-ESRGAN

34.6/0.84

33.9/0.84

Good PSNR and SSIM. Low NIQE for both

Choice depends on the relative importance of: PSNR, SSIM, BRISQUE and NIQE.

Uganda

BSRGAN or real-ESRGAN

35.9/0.92

35.5/0.92

Excellent SSIM, comparable PSNR. Low BRISQUE ans NIQE for both

Choice depends on the relative importance of: PSNR,SSIM, BRISQUE and NIQE.
