ChromaSharpen - makes the colors slightly more vibrant with a sideeffect of possibly adding Chromatic Abberation to the image. I am not sure about the usage of this model on real case scenarios but anything blurry or with fuzzy colors could work

BSChroma

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.

DeBLR

This model was trained on lossless video frames of Metal Arms: Glitch in the System, compressed with Bink V1 for the LR frames. It's a lot more efficient than my first DeBink model, and also has less artifacts. It's not quite as robust, but the compression is barely noticeable in videos after processing with this.

DeBink Lite

This model removes early 2000s Bink and other compression artifacts. Works well on almost any image or video compression type.

Incomplete lite model to remove ROQ compression

Pretrained model: 1x_DeJpeg_Fatality_01_175000_G.pth

Fatality DeBlur

These models deblur most images. It was trained mostly on aniso2 and iso blurring (BSRGAN augmentation) with some gaussian mixed in. It performs well on most blurry images, but I'd recommend using something like Fatality_Deblur for very strong gaussian blur.

Focus

Focus Moderate

This is a sharpening/deblurring model for anime video. It was created with three goals in mind:
Be blazing fast
Try to avoid enhancing noise and compression artifacts
Try to avoid over-enhancing intentionally blurred parts of the image

Despite that last point, this is not intended to be used on modern anime which makes heavy of use depth-of-field effects.

HurrDeblur SuperUltraCompact

Category: Skin
Purpose: Skin Upscaling

Adds plausible high frequency detail and removes subtle blur. This is an early unfinished attempt at a x1 Lite model designed specifically for enhancing detail on skin diffuse textures of 3d characters. Even in its current state it works quite well.

Best suited for uncompressed or cleaned textures - otherwise it may just enhance any existing compression artefacts too. The training set included faces, body parts, eyes 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 enhanced with this model. The results are subtle, so run multiple times if desired.

Pretrained model: 50/50 Interpolation of DIV2K-Lite and SpongeBC1-Lite

ITF SkinDiffDetail Lite v1

Pretrained: Custom JPEG dataset

Model I forgot to release. This doesn't totally remove JPEG artifacts, but it does a decent job at a fast rate. It seemingly does a better job of retaining detail than some other JPEG models. The model is incomplete, I need to train it further on compact rather than ESRGAN. This is just a temporary release

Kim2091 DeJpeg v0

PixelSharpen

DeBlur, ReFocus, Sharpen Manga, Anime and cartoon style images, but will work on real life images too.

ReFocus Cleanly

DeBlur, ReFocus, Sharpen Real life style images, but will work on Anime images too.

ReFocus V3

This model decompresses images and video compressed using RoQ. Config and presets will be added when Mega decides to let me use their site!

RoQ_nRoll

Purpose: Upscaling older cartoons

This is yet another retrain of SaurusX's SwatKats_Lite model. The dataset was reprocessed with my [Find Misaligned Images](<https://github.com/Kim2091/helpful-scripts/tree/main/Find%20Misaligned%20Images>) script, along with the new [ImgAlign](<https://github.com/sonic41592/ImgAlign>) update, which drastically reduced artifacts and increased the model's capabilities. This particular model is roughly on par with or slightly behind the original, doing better in some spots and worse in others. Refer to the attached examples to see this.

The advantage of this over the original is the speed improvement of Compact over ESRGAN-lite. In a 480p test on an RTX 4090, the original ESRGAN-lite model took 0.28 seconds to process a frame vs Compact's 0.13 seconds.

SwatKats Compact

Sharpening, line darkening and slight line thinning, specifically made for the Boruto anime.

ThePi7on Solidd Deborutify UltraLite

Fix images that have been arbitrarily / poorly resized, such as non-integer nearest-neighbor upscaling/downscaling - Also acts as an image sharpener/deblur when used on slightly soft inputs

Pretrained model: 1x_UnResize_MKII_030000_G.pth

UnResize V3

mdeblur

In addition to removing the vertical blur, the model upscales, sharpens and will remove MPEG-2 artifacting and a small amount of rainbowing and dot crawl. Another series afflicted with the vertical blur is Avatar the Last Airbender, which can be repaired by this model. The video fed into the model MUST be 540 vertical for the deblur to work properly.

SwatKats

After not being entirely happy with the main Spongebob v6 model, I trained a new one with blurring OTF options and two different downscale types. This one is much better in my opinion.
