Emulating Waifu2x at Noise Level 3 NOTE: You can't use this with regular esrgan forks or the bot, it has to be run through basicsr

Trained this model to see how it would work trying to essentially get the same results as Waifu2x but with ESRGAN

This is my first 2xcompact model, the main purpose of it is to upscale Dragon ball GT. for upscaling videos that have grain I would recommend denoising and dehaloing it before passing it to the model for temporal stability.

As the name might suggest, this model aims to upscale text with less distortion that other models. It seems to do a good job generally, but don't expect it to be a state of the art model that can upscale magazines and stuff. It makes things more readable but since it was train on B/W pictures it desaturates them.

Real-ESRGAN aims at developing Practical Algorithms for General Image/Video Restoration. Real-ESRGAN aims at developing Practical Algorithms for General Image/Video Restoration. We extend the powerful ESRGAN to a practical restoration application (namely, Real-ESRGAN), which is trained with pure synthetic data.

SwinIR: Image Restoration Using Swin Transformer Image restoration is a long-standing low-level vision problem that aims to restore high-quality images from low-quality images (e.g., downscaled, noisy and compressed images). While state-of-the-art image restoration methods are based on convolutional neural networks, few attempts have been made with Transformers which show impressive performance on high-level vision tasks. In this paper, we propose a strong baseline model SwinIR for image restoration based on the Swin Transformer. SwinIR consists of three parts: shallow feature extraction, deep feature extraction and high-quality image reconstruction. In particular, the deep feature extraction module is composed of several residual Swin Transformer blocks (RSTB), each of which has several Swin Transformer layers together with a residual connection. We conduct experiments on three representative tasks: image super-resolution (including classical, lightweight and real-world image super-resolution), image denoising (including grayscale and color image denoising) and JPEG compression artifact reduction. Experimental results demonstrate that SwinIR outperforms state-of-the-art methods on different tasks by up to 0.14~0.45dB, while the total number of parameters can be reduced by up to 67%.

## AniSD Suite (15 models) **Scale:** 2x (1x for AniSD DB) **Architecture:** SPAN / Compact / SwinIR Small / CRAFT / DAT2 / RPLKSR **Dataset:** Anime frames. Credits to @.kuronoe. and @pwnsweet (EVA dataset) for their contributions to the dataset! **Dataset Size:** ~7,000 - ~13,000 AniSD is a suite of 15 (as of time of writing) specialized SISR models trained to restore and upscale standard definition digital anime from ~2000s and onwards, including both both WEB and DVD releases. Faithfulness to the source and natural-looking output are the guiding principles behind the training of the AniSD models. This means avoiding oversharpened output (which can look especially absurd on standard definition sources), minimizing upscaling artifacts, retaining the natural detail of the source and of course, fixing the standard range of issues found in many DVD/WEB release (chroma issues, compression, haloing/ringing, blur, dotcrawl, banding etc.). Refer to the infographic above for a quick breakdown of the available models, and refer to the Github release for further information.
