Remastering old anime

in #anime3 years ago

So I've been doing some remastering using AI algorithms on an old anime, hajime no ippo, a boxing anime and have just finished it. The type of remastering I did was to enhance the resolution, clean up artifacts/noise, and frame interpolation. I've made my own subreddit, in there I've got more info, as well as some FAQs and samples. Check it out!

Samples:

If you're having a hard time streaming, you can download them directly, there is no quality loss as there's no additional compression applied to the videos. Simply right click and save video as to download.

Some of these will only be interpolated or enhanced, I will mention.

For now I'll be doing anime, the next series will be the old hunter x hunter. At some point I want to try out live action content, specifically action stuff like martial arts movies, or straight up action, but for now the interpolation algorithms aren't quite good enough, or well actually they kinda are, at least the high end ones, but good luck trying to interpolate anything with those on anything other than a RTX 3090.
