Name: 4x Realistic Misc
Author: Alsa

Nice to release a model again! This one is intended for realistic imagery, and works especially well on faces, hair, and nature shots. It should only be used on somewhat clear shots, without a lot of grain. I trained this model on SPAN, which as of the time of release, you'll need chaiNNer-nightly for. I aimed for a softer, more natural look for this model with as few artifacts as possible.

In addition to the Normal model, I've included a "soft" model. The Soft model is... softer. Basically it was an earlier version of the model with a more limited dataset. It produces more natural output on games or rendered content, but suffers a bit more with realistic stuff.

Note: In shots with DOF (depth of field) or bokeh, unfortunately there will be artifacts. 

Compatibility: You'll have to use the latest chaiNNer-nightly to use this model

The Misc model is trained on various pictures shot by myself (Alsa), including bricks, stone, dirt, grass, plants, wood, bark, metal and a few others.

I scored 7 validation outputs of each of the 21 checkpoints (10k-210k) of this model training with 68 metrics.    
[The metric scores can be found in this google sheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NL-by7WvZyDMHj5XN8UeDALVSSwH70IKvwV65ATWqrA/edit?usp=sharing).

Release checkpoint has been selected by looking at the scores, manually inspecting, and then getting responses on discord to this quick visual test, A B or C, which denote different checkpoints: https://slow.pics/c/8Akzj6rR   

Checkpoint B is the one released here, but you can also try out [Checkpoint A](https://github.com/Phhofm/models/releases/download/4xNomos2_hq_dat2/4xNomos2_hq_dat2_150000.pth) or [Checkpoint C](https://github.com/Phhofm/models/releases/download/4xNomos2_hq_dat2/4xNomos2_hq_dat2_10000.pth) if you like them better.
