感谢大家的关注和使用:-) 关于动漫插画的模型，目前还有很多问题，主要有: 1. 视频处理不了; 2. 景深虚化有问题; 3. 不可调节, 效果过了; 4. 改变原来的风格。大家提供了很好的反馈。我会逐步整理这些反馈，更新在 [这个文档](feedback.md)。希望不久之后，有新模型可以使用

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

We have provided a pretrained model (*RealESRGAN_x4plus.pth*) with upsampling X4.<br>
|
|
**Note that RealESRGAN may still fail in some cases as the real-world degradations are really too complex.**<br>
|
|
Moreover, it **may not** perform well on **human faces, text**, *etc*, which will be optimized later.
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
Real-ESRGAN will be a long-term supported project (in my current plan :smiley:). It will be continuously updated
|
|
in my spare time.
|
|
|
|
Here is a TODO list in the near future:
|
|
|
|
- [ ] optimize for human faces
|
|
- [ ] optimize for texts
|
|
- [x] optimize for anime images
|
|
- [ ] support more scales
|
|
- [ ] support controllable restoration strength
|
|
|
|
If you have any good ideas or demands, please open an issue/discussion to let me know. <br>
|
|
If you have some images that Real-ESRGAN could not well restored, please also open an issue/discussion. I will record it (but I cannot guarantee to resolve it:stuck_out_tongue:). If necessary, I will open a page to specially record these real-world cases that need to be solved, but the current technology is difficult to handle well.

### Portable executable files
|
|
|
|
You can download [Windows](https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.1.2/realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan-20210801-windows.zip) / [Linux](https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.1.2/realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan-20210801-ubuntu.zip) / [MacOS](https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.1.2/realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan-20210801-macos.zip) **executable files for Intel/AMD/Nvidia GPU**.
|
|
|
|
This executable file is **portable** and includes all the binaries and models required. No CUDA or PyTorch environment is needed.<br>
|
|
|
|
You can simply run the following command (the Windows example, more information is in the README.md of each executable files):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan.exe -i input.jpg -o output.png
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
We have provided three models:
|
|
|
|
1. realesrgan-x4plus (default)
|
|
2. realesrnet-x4plus
|
|
3. realesrgan-x4plus-anime (optimized for anime images, small model size)
|
|
|
|
You can use the `-n` argument for other models, for example, `./realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan.exe -i input.jpg -o output.png -n realesrnet-x4plus`
|
|
|
|
### Usage of executable files
|
|
|
|
1. Please refer to [Real-ESRGAN-ncnn-vulkan](https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN-ncnn-vulkan#computer-usages) for more details.
|
|
1. Note that it does not support all the functions (such as `outscale`) as the python script `inference_realesrgan.py`.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
Usage: realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan.exe -i infile -o outfile [options]...
|
|
|
|
-h show this help
|
|
-v verbose output
|
|
-i input-path input image path (jpg/png/webp) or directory
|
|
-o output-path output image path (jpg/png/webp) or directory
|
|
-s scale upscale ratio (4, default=4)
|
|
-t tile-size tile size (>=32/0=auto, default=0) can be 0,0,0 for multi-gpu
|
|
-m model-path folder path to pre-trained models(default=models)
|
|
-n model-name model name (default=realesrgan-x4plus, can be realesrgan-x4plus | realesrgan-x4plus-anime | realesrnet-x4plus)
|
|
-g gpu-id gpu device to use (default=0) can be 0,1,2 for multi-gpu
|
|
-j load:proc:save thread count for load/proc/save (default=1:2:2) can be 1:2,2,2:2 for multi-gpu
|
|
-x enable tta mode
|
|
-f format output image format (jpg/png/webp, default=ext/png)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that it may introduce block inconsistency (and also generate slightly different results from the PyTorch implementation), because this executable file first crops the input image into several tiles, and then processes them separately, finally stitches together.
|
|
|
|
This executable file is based on the wonderful [Tencent/ncnn](https://github.com/Tencent/ncnn) and [realsr-ncnn-vulkan](https://github.com/nihui/realsr-ncnn-vulkan) by [nihui](https://github.com/nihui).

## :zap: Quick Inference
|
|
|
|
### Inference general images
|
|
|
|
Download pre-trained models: [RealESRGAN_x4plus.pth](https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.1.0/RealESRGAN_x4plus.pth)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
wget https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.1.0/RealESRGAN_x4plus.pth -P experiments/pretrained_models
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Inference!
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python inference_realesrgan.py --model_path experiments/pretrained_models/RealESRGAN_x4plus.pth --input inputs --face_enhance
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Results are in the `results` folder
|
|
|
|
### Inference anime images

|
|
More details and comparisons with [waifu2x](https://github.com/nihui/waifu2x-ncnn-vulkan) are in [**anime_model.md**](docs/anime_model.md)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# download model
|
|
wget https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.2.2.4/RealESRGAN_x4plus_anime_6B.pth -P experiments/pretrained_models
|
|
# inference
|
|
python inference_realesrgan.py --model_path experiments/pretrained_models/RealESRGAN_x4plus_anime_6B.pth --input inputs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Results are in the `results` folder
|
|
|
|
### Usage of python script
|
|
|
|
1. You can use X4 model for **arbitrary output size** with the argument `outscale`. The program will further perform cheap resize operation after the Real-ESRGAN output.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
Usage: python inference_realesrgan.py --model_path experiments/pretrained_models/RealESRGAN_x4plus.pth --input infile --output outfile [options]...
|
|
|
|
A common command: python inference_realesrgan.py --model_path experiments/pretrained_models/RealESRGAN_x4plus.pth --input infile --netscale 4 --outscale 3.5 --half --face_enhance
|
|
|
|
-h show this help
|
|
--input Input image or folder. Default: inputs
|
|
--output Output folder. Default: results
|
|
--model_path Path to the pre-trained model. Default: experiments/pretrained_models/RealESRGAN_x4plus.pth
|
|
--netscale Upsample scale factor of the network. Default: 4
|
|
--outscale The final upsampling scale of the image. Default: 4
|
|
--suffix Suffix of the restored image. Default: out
|
|
--tile Tile size, 0 for no tile during testing. Default: 0
|
|
--face_enhance Whether to use GFPGAN to enhance face. Default: False
|
|
--half Whether to use half precision during inference. Default: False
|
|
--ext Image extension. Options: auto | jpg | png, auto means using the same extension as inputs. Default: auto
|
|
```
