This model corrects jagged lines on animation that has been deinterlaced. It handles simple line doubling, line interpolation, and even Yadif-style artifacts. It can also handle sources that were resized after deinterlacing, for example resizing from ntsc to pal resolutions. If a source has been upscaled after deinterlacing, it will need to be downsized before applying this model.

AnimeUndeint Compact

Attempts to remove the damages done by BC1 compression.

BCGone Smooth

A fast upscaler that is a replacement for standard methods of cleaning noise from the picture. Ideal for BDRemux 720p and 1080p, but only if the noise is monochrome or close to it. So far, attempts are underway to create a dataset that could eliminate color noise at the same speed.

1x BW Denoise

Attempts to remove the damages done by color banding. For this model, I downscaled all of the HR images to make their pixel size closer to 1000x1000 using the Box filter and then downscaled them again by 50% using the Point filter. Afterwards, I applied 64-bit color banding to every image in the dataset.

Bandage Smooth

A model trained with the goal of preserving texture while removing halftones. I do plan on making improved versions down the line, as this one didn't come out as well as I'd like.

Bendel_Halftone

This model helps repair color bleed and heavy chroma noise that may be present on some older footage, particularly that which was recorded on VHS. It also cleans up rainbows if they are present.

BleedOut Compact

Purpose: "binarization" for scanned books.

A compact, lightweight version trained for general-purpose cleanup. While it performs well, RealPLSKR delivers superior results for more complex cases. 
- Strengths (Handles Well): 
✔ Color bleed 
✔ Spots & small speckles 
✔ Mould stains 
✔ Fine hair & scratches – Good at thin, faint lines. 
✔ Light pencil marks 
✔ Dividers & text preservation 
- Weaknesses (Struggles With): 
✖ Large speckles 
✖ Thick hair/clumps – May leave remnants or blurring. 
✖ Photographs – Bad lighting; noisy/dark images degrade quality.

Book Compact

Purpose: Cartoons

This is a simple retrain of SaurusX's 1x_BroadcastToStudioLite_485k model from a couple years ago. This one is trained on compact, actually has less artifacts, and is significantly faster.

BroadcastToStudio Compact

This is SaurusX's original description:
Improvement of low-quality cartoons from broadcast sources. Will greatly increase the visual quality of bad broadcast tape sources of '80s and '90s cartoons (e.g. Garfield and Friends, Heathcliff, DuckTales, etc). Directly addresses chroma blur, dot crawl, and rainbowing. You're highly advised to take care of haloing beforehand in your favorite video editor as the model will not fix it and may make existing halos more noticeable.

Sadly this model has some intense artifacts. Thankfully the SPAN re-train reduced these a bit, but they're still problematic. This was just a quick test of SPAN's capabilities. This was trained only to ~66k iterations, compared to the 480k of the original.

Fatality DeBlur

Removes banding, blocking, dithering, aliasing, noise and color tint on DDS Compressed Skin Diffuse Textures.

This should work extremely well on most modern DDS compression types. The training set was compressed with BC3/DXT5, BC3/DXT5 Fast, BC2/DXT3, BC2/DXT3 Fast, and a small number of JPEG compressed images to cover outliers.

This model is trained to remove the slight green color tint that DDS compression tends to add to skin textures, so the model output will not match the original color tone of the input image. This is the desired result though, as DDS compression shifts the colors to a sickly green tint and this model corrects that to more natural color tones.

The training set included faces, body parts, eyes, mouths and hair in a variety of skin types and tones so it should work well on most related diffuse textures.

However it's not just limited to skin, many other images and textures can be cleaned with this model. Designed to be used as a first step cleaning pass before applying additional models after. Check out the other ITF Models.

N64 textures use a color depth of 5-bits per channel, this model attempts to clean them, restoring smooth gradients in textures

N64clean

Takes composite/RF/VHS NES footage and attempts to restore it to RGB quality. Assumes footage has been properly deinterlaced via field duplication from 240p to 480p/720p/etc. Note that:

* All footage was captured in 240p/480p/720p NTSC.
* RGB footage was captured via an AV Famicom with the RGB Blaster via the Retrotink 2x or GBS Control.
* The model was trained exclusively on individual frames, so it can't fix things like dropouts.
* The even and odd fields of NES composite tend to be a bit...different from each other, so there will be some jitter at 60fps.
* I don't have access to an NES Toploader, so I wouldn't expect it to fix the jailbars very well.

Revision History:

* 1.5.0 (06/29/2025): Applied additional augmentations to reduce overfitting. Also added a small amount of 720p training data.
* 1.0.0 (11/03/2024): Initial release.

NES Composite to RGB

Takes composite/RF/VHS NES footage and attempts to restore it to RGB quality. Assumes footage has been properly deinterlaced via field duplication from 240p to 480p/720p/etc. Note that:

* All footage was captured in 240p/480p/720p NTSC.
* RGB footage was captured via an AV Famicom with the RGB Blaster via the Retrotink 2x or GBS Control.
* The model was trained exclusively on individual frames, so it can't fix things like dropouts.
* The even and odd fields of NES composite tend to be a bit...different from each other, so there will be some jitter at 60fps.
* I don't have access to an NES Toploader, so I wouldn't expect it to fix the jailbars very well.

Compared to the OmniSR variant of this model, this version runs more quickly (despite the larger model file size), and should do a good job on footage captured directly from the console using composite. If your footage is from a VHS tape or was captured over RF, the slower OmniSR model is probably a better choice.

Revision History:

* 1.5.0 (09/17/2025): Added "Small" version of model

cinepak

Purpose: Digital Animation

A very focused model meant for upscaling the TMNT 2003 DVDs. Degradations were added via AVISynth in order to match the video on the TMNT 2003 DVDs to correct the source problems. Problems corrected include aliased red chroma, chroma vertical blur, bad deinterlacing, banding, compression "grain", and poor animation line detail. The AVS scripts for the LR's were run through HCEnc to get authentic low bit rate MPEG-2 artifacts for fixing. By design, the final model gives a very digital-looking result and does not do a good job of retaining textures as the style of TMNT 2003 is all flats and gradients.
