Face Restoration

Face Color Enhancement and Restoration

Face Inpainting

Dependencies and Installation

Pytorch >= 1.7.1
CUDA >= 10.1
Other required packages in requirements.txt

# git clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/sczhou/CodeFormer
cd CodeFormer

# create new anaconda env
conda create -n codeformer python=3.8 -y
source activate codeformer

# install python dependencies
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python basicsr/setup.py develop
conda install -c conda-forge dlib

Quick Inference

Download Pre-trained Models:

Download the dlib pretrained models from [Google Drive | OneDrive] to the weights/dlib folder. You can download by run the following command OR manually download the pretrained models.

python scripts/download_pretrained_models.py dlib

Download the CodeFormer pretrained models from [Google Drive | OneDrive] to the weights/CodeFormer folder. You can download by run the following command OR manually download the pretrained models.

python scripts/download_pretrained_models.py CodeFormer

Prepare Testing Data:

You can put the testing images in the inputs/TestWhole folder. If you would like to test on cropped and aligned faces, you can put them in the inputs/cropped_faces folder.

Testing on Face Restoration:

# For cropped and aligned faces
python inference_codeformer.py --w 0.5 --has_aligned --test_path [input folder]

# For the whole images
python inference_codeformer.py --w 0.7 --test_path [input folder]

NOTE that w is in [0, 1]. Generally, smaller w tends to produce a higher-quality result, while larger w yields a higher-fidelity result.

The results will be saved in the results folder.
