Waifu2X is a powerful upscaling algorithm based on deep convolutional neural networks, and specifically trained on anime.
Huh. I guess it goes to show what good solutions fan groups can come up with. That's fairly bleeding edge, with a well chosen training set and it produces great results. Really fascinating. I wonder how well it works on regular old line-art or if it really is dependent on working with anime-like artwork.
- TD-Linux 11y agoYou could always re-train the network on a different style of images if you have a huge set. The set used with waifu2x was probably easy to get due to pixiv/*boorus.
- mintplant 11y agoThe best part about waifu2x is that it tends to work really well even on images it wasn't intended for, at least in my experience. I use the web version [1] all the time on all sorts of images, usually with excellent results--even for photos. [1] http://waifu2x.udp.jp/ http://waifu2x.udp.jp/
