Hi! Thank you for this repository. I have a suggestion. Most users are looking for something executable and usable out of the box. For example this repository https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN which is a wonderful image up-scaling AI, has pre-trained builds for all platforms.

What I said above might take a bit of time but until that moment, it would be much nicer to use Tensorflow-Docker https://www.tensorflow.org/install/docker so to save huge time getting this AI to work locally.

Regards, Alixsep

Thanks for the suggestion. To be blunt, this repo isn't intended to provide an out-of-the-box tool for super-resolution, but rather to accompany the papers mentioned at the beginning of the repo. All of the authors, myself included, have moved on from this work and don't have the bandwidth to make the quality-of-life changes that you recommend.

Cheers, Sawyer

if this paper is not intended to help people why wasting time to publish it?

More people need to participate. If this is a good thing, some people will package it into easy-to-use tools, even if the packaging difficulty is high. As long as this technology is enough to "overturn the world", there will be people, especially Chinese people. We are not very good at innovation, but we are good at doing the "last mile" and using other people's research results for the world to use.

Unfortunately, my time and technical skills are quite far from here.
