Anime4KCPP provides an optimized bloc97's Anime4K algorithm version 0.9, and it also provides its own CNN algorithm ACNet, it provides a variety of way to use, including preprocessing and real-time playback, it aims to be a high performance tools to process both image and video.
This project is for learning and the exploration task of algorithm course in SWJTU.
Anime4K is a simple high-quality anime upscale algorithm. The version 0.9 does not use any machine learning approaches, and can be very fast in real-time processing or pretreatment.
ACNet is a CNN based anime upscale algorithm. It aims to provide both high-quality and high-performance.
HDN mode can better denoise, HDN level is from 1 to 3, higher for better denoising but may cause blur and lack of detail.
for detail, see wiki page.
