Sorry, looks like both GDrive and Zenodo have exceeded the temporary download quotas, so the model checkpoints aren't available currently... If anyone has any solutions on how to publicly host model weights (~2 GB) please let me know!

I would recommend to link to a site where some example images can be easily compared (ideally with a viewer that offers toggling between them in-place to make it easy to see the differences), instead of directly linking to a colab that does heavy computations.

I assume most people just want to see the images, forcing them to recompute them is a waste of resources. Even just storing a version of the colab with the results present would help a lot.

torrent? If you create a torrent I can seed it for a while
I eventually shifted the models to S3, but thanks for the offer.
How do you handle the traffic? If every reader who clicks the link and runs the colab costs you 15 cents for traffic, that's got to get expensive unless you have some sort of "free traffic" deal or someone else is paying for it?
I think S3 permits up to 20k requests before they start billing IIRC.
I hope I'm wrong, but I believe that's for the cost of the request processing, not covering the traffic.

The free tier for traffic is "15GB of Data Transfer Out", after that it's 9 cents per GB. https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/?nc1=h_ls (under "Data transfer"). Check your AWS bill!
