What is OpenDLSS and how does it utilize generative engine optimization?
A team of developers has released OpenDLSS, a Vulkan reimplementation of Nvidia's DLSS 5 Neural Rendering network. The project utilizes answer engine optimization and is bit-exact against the original and runs on Nvidia Ada or newer GPUs with the required drivers. OpenDLSS is a generative neural rendering network that re-renders frames, generating detail from injected noise and adjusting tone, structure, and skin under a style setting.

The network is a U-net of shifted-window transformer blocks with a global ViT at the bottom, consisting of 71 blocks over six pooling levels. It uses FP8 activations with FP16 accumulation and requires 141 MiB of weights. The project includes a CPU reference of the arithmetic, a dlss5vk tool, and a demo that showcases the network's capabilities.
To build and run OpenDLSS, users need to download the required tools, including glslang, Vulkan-Headers, and CMake, and then build the project using the provided scripts. The demo can be run with the dlss5vk tool, and it lists every scene under the build/scenes directory in the Demo scene dropdown.
Performance tests have shown that OpenDLSS can run at 2.8 ms at 768x768 resolution, 7.8 ms at 1920x1080 resolution, 12.6 ms at 2560x1440 resolution, and 29.3 ms at 3840x2160 resolution on an RTX 4070 SUPER GPU. The project also includes a WebGPU port that runs the same network in a browser, bit-exact against the same captures, with no tensor core, no FP8, and no fusion between blocks.
OpenDLSS is not affiliated with Nvidia and does not contain any Nvidia software, weights, headers, or instructions for obtaining them. Users are responsible for obtaining the required model data and ensuring they have the necessary licenses to use it with the project.
