+# Image Restoration Models
+
+## Summary
+
+This repository provides high-performance **image restoration** models including **NAFNet** and **SCUNet** implementations for various image enhancement tasks. The models are designed to restore degraded images by removing noise, artifacts, and other imperfections while preserving important visual details. These **deep learning** models leverage advanced neural network architectures optimized for computational efficiency and restoration quality.
+
+The repository contains multiple model variants trained on different datasets: **NAFNet-REDS** for general image restoration, **NAFNet-GoPro** for deblurring tasks, and **NAFNet-SIDD** for noise reduction. Additionally, **SCUNet** provides both GAN-based and PSNR-optimized approaches for comprehensive image enhancement. All models are exported in **ONNX format** for efficient inference and cross-platform compatibility.
+
+These restoration models support **tiled processing** to handle high-resolution images efficiently through memory-optimized batch processing with configurable tile sizes and overlaps. The implementation includes support for images with alpha channels (RGBA format) and provides flexible parameter tuning for different use cases. The models achieve state-of-the-art performance in benchmark evaluations while maintaining practical inference speeds suitable for production environments.
+
+## Usage
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install dghs-imgutils
+```
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```python
+from imgutils.restore import restore_with_nafnet, restore_with_scunet
+from PIL import Image
+
+# Load your degraded image
+image = Image.open('degraded_image.jpg')
+
+# Restore using NAFNet (recommended for general restoration)
+restored_nafnet = restore_with_nafnet(image, model='REDS')
+
+# Restore using SCUNet (alternative approach)
+restored_scunet = restore_with_scunet(image, model='GAN')
+
+# Save restored images
+restored_nafnet.save('restored_nafnet.jpg')
+restored_scunet.save('restored_scunet.jpg')
+```
+
+### Advanced Usage with Custom Parameters
+
+```python
+from imgutils.restore import restore_with_nafnet
+
+# Custom processing parameters for high-resolution images
+restored_image = restore_with_nafnet(
+    image, 
+    model='SIDD',  # Choose from 'REDS', 'GoPro', 'SIDD'
+    tile_size=512,  # Larger tiles for better performance
+    tile_overlap=32,  # More overlap for seamless results
+    batch_size=8,  # Higher batch size for faster processing
+    silent=False  # Show progress bar
+)
+```
+
+## Available Models
+
+### NAFNet Models
+- **NAFNet-REDS**: General image restoration trained on REDS dataset
+- **NAFNet-GoPro**: Specialized for deblurring tasks
+- **NAFNet-SIDD**: Optimized for noise reduction
+
+### SCUNet Models
+- **SCUNet-GAN**: GAN-based restoration for perceptual quality
+- **SCUNet-PSNR**: PSNR-optimized restoration for objective metrics
+
+## Model Benchmarks
+
+The models have been extensively benchmarked for various restoration tasks:
+
+- **NAFNet** demonstrates superior performance in deblurring and general restoration
