Introduction

With a model called AnimeGANv2, it uses Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) architecture to train and create high-quality anime images. GAN is a two-part network architecture consisting of a generator and a discriminator. The generator network aims to create anime images that resemble real images, while the discriminator network tries to distinguish between images generated from the generator network and real images.

Parameters

Inputs

• input - (image - .png/.jpg/.jpeg): This is the type of realistic image that users need to convert.

Output

• output - (image -.png): The image is recreated according to the user's request. The size of the image when reproduced will not change.

Usage for developers

Please find below the details to track the information and access the code for processing the model on our platform.

Requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

Code based on AIOZ structure

    output_path = 'output.png'

    # Load model

    # Pre-processing
    input_img = preprocess(input, device)

    # Inference
    with torch.no_grad():
        out = net(input_img, False)
    out = out.squeeze(0).cpu()
    out = ((out + 1.) * 127.5).numpy().clip(0, 255).astype(np.uint8)
    out = cv2.cvtColor(out, cv2.COLOR_RGB2BGR)
    cv2.imwrite(output_path, out)

    # Return output
    output = open(output_path, "rb")  # io.BufferedReader
    return output
