Removed the wait at first launch for most graphics cards.
Increased speed of training by 10-20%, but you have to retrain all models from scratch.
SAEHD:
added option 'use float16'
Experimental option. Reduces the model size by half.
Increases the speed of training.
Decreases the accuracy of the model.
The model may collapse or not train.
Model may not learn the mask in large resolutions.
true_face_training option is replaced by
"True face power". 0.0000 .. 1.0
Experimental option. Discriminates the result face to be more like the src face. Higher value - stronger discrimination.

added FacesetEnhancer
4.2.other) data_src util faceset enhance best GPU.bat
4.2.other) data_src util faceset enhance multi GPU.bat
FacesetEnhancer greatly increases details in your source face set,
same as Gigapixel enhancer, but in fully automatic mode.
In OpenCL build it works on CPU only.
Please consider a donation.
4.2.other) data_src util faceset metadata save.bat
saves metadata of data_src\aligned\ faces into data_src\aligned\meta.dat
4.2.other) data_src util faceset metadata restore.bat
restore metadata from 'meta.dat' to images
if image size different from original, then it will be automatically resized
You can greatly enhance face details of src faceset by using Topaz Gigapixel software.
example https://i.imgur.com/Gwee99L.jpg
Example of workflow:
1) run 'data_src util faceset metadata save.bat'
2) launch Topaz Gigapixel
3) open 'data_src\aligned\' and select all images
4) set output folder to 'data_src\aligned_topaz' (create folder in save dialog)
5) set settings as on screenshot https://i.imgur.com/kAVWMQG.jpg
you can choose 2x, 4x, or 6x upscale rate
6) start process images and wait full process
7) rename folders:
data_src\aligned -> data_src\aligned_original
data_src\aligned_topaz -> data_src\aligned
8) copy 'data_src\aligned_original\meta.dat' to 'data_src\aligned\'
9) run 'data_src util faceset metadata restore.bat'
images will be downscaled back to original size (256x256) preserving details
metadata will be restored
10) now your new enhanced faceset is ready to use !
This is sort method by absolute per pixel difference between all faces.
options:
Sort by similar? ( y/n ?:help skip:y ) :
if you choose 'n', then most dissimilar faces will be placed first.
now you have 3 ways:
1) define light directions manually (not for google colab)
watch demo https://youtu.be/79xz7yEO5Jw
2) relight faceset with one random direction
3) relight faceset with predefined 8 directions
Synthesize new faces from existing ones by relighting them using DeepPortraitRelighter network.
With the relighted faces neural network will better reproduce face shadows.
Therefore you can synthsize shadowed faces from fully lit faceset.

as a result, better fakes on dark faces:

in OpenCL build Relighter runs on CPU,
install pytorch directly via pip install, look at requirements
fixed crashes
removed useless 'ebs' color transfer
changed keys for color degrade
added image degrade via denoise - same as denoise extracted data_dst.bat ,
but you can control this option directly in the interactive converter
added image degrade via bicubic downscale and upscale
SAEHD: default ae_dims for df now 256.
* Restore mask functionality
Once mask is saved (using 'c'), mask tool can apply same modifications to the next alignment (by pressing 'r'). Thus some routine work is decreased.
* Mask edit added function to re-apply changes
fixed model sizes from previous update.
avoided bug in ML framework(keras) that forces to train the model on random noise.
Converter: added blur on the same keys as sharpness
Added new model 'TrueFace'. This is a GAN model ported from https://github.com/NVlabs/FUNIT
Model produces near zero morphing and high detail face.
Model has higher failure rate than other models.
Keep src and dst faceset in same lighting conditions.
