ArtStation1337 Dedither

ArtStation1337 Dedither v2

I've been experimenting a lot since the last descripton was released to save even more detail, and to get rid of some of the beginner's soreness. All three models are not yet perfect and I will develop them, but what is the essence of the three models, the models on omni is just a division of VL eats less large screenton, VH is just a re-trained model on a modified dataset and with VL as a prevoritolnoy shadowing that it would demolish more screenton, while not going to demolish all the textures and very large screenton. Esrgan model was trained on a dataset VH for use in the colab, it works in some places worse than Omni, so could not fight with overlapping screenton.

DWTP_descreenton_H_esrgan

DWTP_descreenton_VH4

DWTP_descreenton_VL4

For photos/realistic images, but worth trying on other images that have reduced colors and dithering along with fine details. Trained using the ESRGAN-FS code (https://github.com/ManuelFritsche/real-world-sr/tree/master/esrgan-fs/codes) for better details compared to plain ESRGAN.

FSDedither

Cartoons/pixel art/other non-realistic stuff with dithering

FSDedither Manga

Fine-tuned 4xFSDedither to upscale images from the game Riven, but should be better in general, particularly on ordered dithering. I adjusted the dataset to have a better variety of dithering parameters, and turned up the HFEN and pixel loss to get better details and color restoration with less noise.

FSDedither Riven

Manga-style images with or without dithering - cartoons, maybe pixel art, etc

Category: Art/Pixel Art
Purpose: Pixel Art/Sprites

Upscales medium resolution Sprites, dithered or undithered, can also upscale manga/anime and gameboy camera images.

Fatality 1

Fatality Comix

Fatality Comix MK3

Purpose: Anime PSP games, Fate Extra

This model was trained as a favor to Demon and the Fate Extra community. It leaves a nice grain on the images and upscales lines and details accurately without looking odd. This model works on most anime-style PSP games. Enjoy! It works best on content with dithering and quantization. NOTICE: I have included both NCNN and ONNX models to make upscaling easier if you rely on either of these. For NCNN, there's two versions. One is FP16 and the other is FP32. FP16 works best on RTX GPUs. Choose FP32 if in doubt about compatibility, or if FP16 doesn't work for you. To use ONNX, download chaiNNer and upscale through there with the ONNX nodes.

FatePlus-lite

A universal model, that is aimed at prerendered images, but handles realistic faces, manga, pixel art and dedithering as well. Trained using the patchgan discriminator, with cx loss, cutmixup and frequency separation, it produces good results with a slight grain due to patchgan, with some sharpening using cutmixup.

Highly flexible 2D Art upscaling

NMKD UltraYandere

This is part of my [PBRify_Remix](<https://github.com/Kim2091/PBRify_Remix>) project. This is a much more capable model based on SwinIR Medium, which should strike a balance between capacity for learning + inference speed. It appears to have done so :)

### Replaced by 4x-PBRify_UpscalerDAT2_V1

4x-PBRify_UpscalerSIR-M_V2

4x photo upscaler on the SSDIR_Sharp dataset, trained with otf, using the same settings as Real_HAT_GAN.  
These otf values are very high in my opinion. This was an experiment if I used the same settings as Real_HAT_GAN (therefore the name).   
This model will denoise very strongly and smooth out a lot (so a lot of details will be lost. But maybe this effect might be beneficial to someone)

4xReal_SSDIR_DAT_GAN

Upscaling and dedithering pre-rendered sprites, images and textures made in the 90s. Basically vintage CGI.

4xTextures_GTAV_rgt-s_dither

Purpose: Grayscale pencil/sketch style art with paper textures (Made in Abyss specific)

Old model trained for pencil sketch style art, good at restoring the paper and pencil and other textures , specifically the Made in Abyss manga, but should work for art with a similar style.
