Introduce more tuning settings #1759

Open shssoichiro opened 4 years ago

shssoichiro commented 4 years ago

Especially if we would like to keep the fine-tune parameters hidden away from the user's control, it would be good to introduce additional tuning options, for example Film vs Anime as x264 has. The different types of material will benefit from different weightings, etc.

I think I have enough material and spare cycles to at least bootstrap an Anime tune. How would one go about this?

For example, would replicating this with a different dataset be a good start?

shssoichiro commented 4 years ago

That seems like a reasonable starting point. There are probably several "magic values" in the codebase that could be tuned for this. Plus some more obvious settings which we don't have yet, such as variable pyramid size.
