# DnCNN: Optimized for Qualcomm Devices

DnCNN is a 17-layer denoising convolutional neural network that uses residual learning to remove Gaussian noise (sigma=25) from grayscale images. The network predicts the noise residual and subtracts it from the input to produce a clean image.

This is based on the implementation of DnCNN found [here](https://github.com/cszn/KAIR).
This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the [Qualcomm® AI Hub Models](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models-cn/blob/main/src/qai_hub_models/models/dncnn) library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found [here](#performance-summary).

Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses [Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench](https://workbench.aihub.qualcomm.cn) to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. [Sign up](https://myaccount.qualcomm.com/signup) to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.

## Getting Started
There are two ways to deploy this model on your device:

### Option 1: Download Pre-Exported Models

Below are pre-exported model assets ready for deployment.

| Runtime | Precision | Chipset | SDK Versions | Download |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ONNX | float | Universal | QAIRT 2.45, ONNX Runtime 1.27.1 | [Download](https://china-qaihub-public-assets.s3.cn-northwest-1.amazonaws.com.cn/qai-hub-models/models/dncnn/releases/v0.62.1/dncnn-onnx-float.zip)

### Option 2: Export with Custom Configurations

Use the [Qualcomm® AI Hub Models](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models-cn/blob/main/src/qai_hub_models/models/dncnn) Python library to compile and export the model with your own:
- Custom weights (e.g., fine-tuned checkpoints)
- Custom input shapes
- Target device and runtime configurations

This option is ideal if you need to customize the model beyond the default configuration provided here.

See our repository for [DnCNN on GitHub](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models-cn/blob/main/src/qai_hub_models/models/dncnn) for usage instructions.
