cpu and location

[HibiVixx]

I am having difficulty in two steps that I can not solve, thank you if someone helps me because I am a layman in linux... First I do not know how to make the software use my CPU, and I'm having trouble finding folder or file...

(base) alex@mt:~/Bringing-Old-Photos-Back-to-Life-master$ python run.py --input_folder test_images/old_w_scratch \
>               --output_folder [output_path]

Hi @HibiVixx

• You can run the model using CPU by passing the attribute --GPU -1 in the run command.
• And for the not able to find the folder. You have to change [output_path] to the absolute path to a folder in your system.

So basically, your will be as follows if you have a folder called output inside the Bringing-Old-Photos-Back-to-Life-master directory:

python run.py --input_folder test_images/old_w_scratch --output_folder output --GPU -1

I hope this helps you.

Thanks.
