Re: [darktable-user] Wishlist: Upscaling via Machine Learning
Sometimes when I keystone I need to zoom in to get a proper vertical line. I think the infinity symbol needs to zoom as well. I always thought that but only just recently did it interfere with my work. darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org

Re: [darktable-user] Wishlist: Upscaling via Machine Learning
What you really want is deep nets trained for specific sensors/ISO combinations for denoising. Looks like neat doesn't use deep learning (if they would, I'm sure they'd mention it in their explanation). So it's unlikely to be state of the art (last time I checked).

Re: [darktable-user] Wishlist: Upscaling via Machine Learning
These are the most impressive results I'm aware of: https://github.com/david-gpu/srez https://github.com/alexjc/neural-enhance https://arxiv.org/pdf/1609.04802.pdf but both gives the best results with specialized training (faces for example). The one Michael proposed seems a more generic one. No idea about performance but "execution" time is usually fast, memory may be a much bigger requirement. This one is about noise reduction: http://webdav.is.mpg.de/pixel/files/neural_denoising/paper.pdf I think in a couple of years machine learning will be the only way to achieve state of the art results for about anything. If not today already. Noise, white balance, clipping recovery, blurry/out of focus shots, color casts, lens correction, defringe, sharpening, inpainting, etc. Up to this (pose edit, content generation): https://github.com/nightrome/really-awesome-gan https://www.slideshare.net/Artifacia/generative-adversarial-networks-and- their-applications (slide 24, 27) It's going to be fun :) Lorenzo 2017-07-09 18:14 GMT+02:00 David Vincent-Jones : > Along the same line: Some years ago Cliff Reiter (Lafayette College) > (using Jsoftware) demonstrated and published 'lossless edge' image > rotation using fractals. > > David > > On 07/09/2017 08:16 AM, Michael Below wrote: > > Hi, > > > > last week I took a couple of images at a concert, and it turned out > > that only a small part of each image was interesting.

Re: [darktable-user] Wishlist: Upscaling via Machine Learning
Hi, if I have to upscale an image I usually use Reshade from www.reshade.com it is a free app the works very well although its only for windows but works fine under wine. Oh and its also free. If I ever have a problem with noise I use Neat Image https://ni.neatvideo.com/ they have a free linux version that is limited to save only in jpg but has support for opencl / cuda GPU processing and it gives unbelievably good results.

Re: [darktable-user] Wishlist: Upscaling via Machine Learning
Along the same line: Some years ago Cliff Reiter (Lafayette College) (using Jsoftware) demonstrated and published 'lossless edge' image rotation using fractals.

[darktable-user] Wishlist: Upscaling via Machine Learning
Hi, last week I took a couple of images at a concert, and it turned out that only a small part of each image was interesting. I was too far away, with a wide-angle lens, so the band I wanted to photograph was in a small part in the center of the frame with lots of other stuff around them, stage, audience etc. Now this can be solved by taking better pictures, coming closer, being prepared with a telephoto lens etc. - but there also seems to be a solution that could find its way into darktable. There have been a number of media reports about machine learning experiments by Google etc. to add missing detail to images during upscaling. It seems like the results are often quite convincing. Now I stumbled upon a Github project for this that seems to offer a hands-on solution which might be a basis for implementation in darktable: https://github.com/lucasdupin/ml-image-scaling What do you think?
