𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀:

𝗚𝗙𝗣-𝗚𝗔𝗡 is a blind face restoration algorithm towards real-world face images. It leverages the generative face prior in a pre-trained GAN to restore realistic faces while preserving fidelity.

Blind face restoration aims at recovering high-quality faces from the low-quality counterparts suffering from unknown degradation, such as low-resolution, noise, blur, compression artifacts, etc.

This Generative Facial Prior (GFP) is incorporated into the face restoration process via channel-split spatial feature transform layers, which allow for a good balance between realness and fidelity.

The results are amazing!

I looked up >  https://xinntao.github.io/projects/gfpgan  ( not being tech-savvy, could not understand anything ! )

Wondered , could your innovative tech, improve my following “ Marriage Film “ ( shot on 8mm celluloid film, on 17 Nov 1959 ) ?
