A C# GUI super-resolution inference utility of Real-ESRGAN with GPU acceleration powered by DirectML.
PRs are welcomed.
Install .NET Desktop Runtime 5.0.15 or higher. (x64)
And then I guess you probably know how a GUI works. ;-)
To use GPU acceleration, a DirectML compatible GPU and an installation of Windows 10 1709 or higher is required. Set the device id to the GPU that you want to use to enable GPU acceleration (on single GPU PC, 0 is the default GPU. However, on some PC with an integrated GPU, 0 is the integrated GPU and 1 is the dedicated GPU). Check out here for a more specific hardware requirements.
The model with a suffix of "6B" is recommended for illustrations while the one with not is recommened for real-life images.
From 
to 
with the magic of Real-ESRGAN.
- Visual Studio 2019 or higher.
Please see Convert_Models_From_PyTorch.md
- GPU accleration is not working on some environment (may yield a black image).
- Directory input is not implemented yet.
- Alpha channel will be discarded. If you need to this channel you may export the alpha channel as an individual image and process it separately, and merge them together with image manipulation softwares like GIMP afterwards.
- Huge memory consumption when handling large image (~1000x1000, eats up ~18.5G memory easily).
