- Add filters_mid spec which allows a expansion->squeeze for the transformation layers.
- Add scale and bias AFTER the switch
- Remove identity transform (models were converging on this)
- Move attention image generation and temperature setting into new function which gets called every step with a save path
The concept here is to use switching to split the generator into two functions:
interpretation and transformation. Transformation is done at the pixel level by
relatively simple conv layers, while interpretation is computed at various levels
by far more complicated conv stacks. The two are merged using the switching
mechanism.
This architecture is far less computationally intensive that RRDB.
- Add LowDimRRDB; essentially a "normal RRDB" but the RDB blocks process at a low dimension using PixelShuffle
- Add switching wrappers around it
- Add support for switching on top of multi-headed inputs and outputs
- Moves PixelUnshuffle to arch_util
Renames AttentiveRRDB to SwitchedRRDB. Moves SwitchedConv to
an external repo (neonbjb/switchedconv). Switchs RDB blocks instead
of conv blocks. Works good!
- Makes skip connections between the generator and discriminator more
extensible by adding additional configuration options for them and supporting
1 and 0 skips.
- Places the temp/ directory with sample images from the training process appear
in the training directory instead of the codes/ directory.
This network is just a fixed (pre-trained) generator
that performs a corruption transformation that the
generator-in-training is expected to undo alongside
SR.
It now injects noise directly into the input filters, rather than a
pure noise filter. The pure noise filter was producing really
poor results (and I'm honestly not quite sure why).
Implements a ResGenv2 architecture which slightly increases the complexity
of the final output layer but causes it to be shared across all skip outputs.
