Overview

Real-ESRGAN ncnn Vulkan

CI License: MIT Open issue Closed issue

This project is the ncnn implementation of Real-ESRGAN. Real-ESRGAN ncnn Vulkan heavily borrows from realsr-ncnn-vulkan. Many thanks to nihui, ncnn and realsr-ncnn-vulkan 😁

Real-ESRGAN aims at developing Practical Algorithms for General Image Restoration. We also optimize it for anime images.

TODO List

  • Support further cheap arbitrary resize (e.g., bicubic, bilinear) for the model outputs
  • Bug: Some PCs will output black images
  • Add the guidance for ncnn model conversion
  • Support face restoration - GFPGAN

💻 Usages

Example Command

realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan.exe -i input.jpg -o output.png -n realesrgan-x4plus-anime

Full Usages

Usage: realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan.exe -i infile -o outfile [options]...

  -h                   show this help
  -v                   verbose output
  -i input-path        input image path (jpg/png/webp) or directory
  -o output-path       output image path (jpg/png/webp) or directory
  -s scale             upscale ratio (4, default=4)
  -t tile-size         tile size (>=32/0=auto, default=0) can be 0,0,0 for multi-gpu
  -m model-path        folder path to pre-trained models(default=models)
  -n model-name        model name (default=realesrgan-x4plus, can be realesrgan-x4plus | realesrgan-x4plus-anime | realesrnet-x4plus)
  -g gpu-id            gpu device to use (default=0) can be 0,1,2 for multi-gpu
  -j load:proc:save    thread count for load/proc/save (default=1:2:2) can be 1:2,2,2:2 for multi-gpu
  -x                   enable tta mode
  -f format            output image format (jpg/png/webp, default=ext/png)
  • input-path and output-path accept either file path or directory path
  • scale = scale level, 4 = upscale 4x
  • tile-size = tile size, use smaller value to reduce GPU memory usage, default selects automatically
  • load:proc:save = thread count for the three stages (image decoding + model upscaling + image encoding), using larger values may increase GPU usage and consume more GPU memory. You can tune this configuration with "4:4:4" for many small-size images, and "2:2:2" for large-size images. The default setting usually works fine for most situations. If you find that your GPU is hungry, try increasing thread count to achieve faster processing.
  • format = the format of the image to be output, png is better supported, however webp generally yields smaller file sizes, both are losslessly encoded

If you encounter crash or error, try to upgrade your GPU driver

    When upscaling images it only uses integrated gpu I want to use my gtx 1650 how do I switch this?

  • in directory mode, option to skip if destination already exist

    in directory mode, option to skip if destination already exist

    if you stop the upscaler while processing a directory and you have to restart it, it will start from the beginning and overwrite existing files

    overwriting in file mode is fine but should be an option for direcotry mode ... so I propose a flag to disable overwrite and skip if exist

    models: consider adding into README how to get them.

    Hey,

    Please consider adding to README a section how to get the pre-trained model files. Currently you'd need to extract them from the following links

    • https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.2.5.0/realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan-20220424-ubuntu.zip
    • https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.2.5.0/realesr-animevideov3.pth
    • https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN/releases/download/v0.2.5.0/realesr-general-x4v3.pth

    It took me a moment to figure out how to get a hold of them and I suspect many others would face similar challenge.
