MAX-Image-Resolution-Enhancer

Upscale an image by a factor of 4, while generating photo-realistic details.

This repository contains code to instantiate and deploy an image resolution enhancer. This model is able to upscale a pixelated image by a factor of 4, while generating photo-realistic details.

The GAN is based on this GitHub repository and on this research article.

The model was trained on 600,000 images of the OpenImages V4 dataset, and the model files are hosted on IBM Cloud Object Storage. The code in this repository deploys the model as a web service in a Docker container. This repository was developed as part of the IBM Developer Model Asset Exchange and the public API is powered by IBM Cloud.
