    GLMixer

    GLMixer

    Graphic Live Mixer

    GLMixer performs real time graphical blending of several movie clips and of computer generated graphics. Drop video files in the mixing workspace and place them in a circular area to change their opacity ; if you selects two videos, moving them together performs a fading transition. This principle generalizes to a large number of videos. Direct interaction with the video allows to be fast and reactive, and to move and deform them on screen. The output of your operations is shown in the output window, typically displayed in full-screen on an external monitor or a projector. But the output can also be saved as a video file. Control GLMixer through network using OpenSoundControl, and generate graphics with ShaderToy GLSL code. Download : https://sourceforge.net/projects/glmixer/files/ Please note GLMixer is discontinued and superseded by vimix https://brunoherbelin.github.io/vimix/

    SmoothLife

    SmoothLife

    A generalization of Conway's Game of Life

    Conway's Game of Life is generalized to a continuous domain. OpenGL and GLSL shaders are used for real-time 2D and 3D graphics. Time stepping is done via a real to complex FFT based convolution operation. There are also two deliberately simple test implementations in FreeBasic and Matlab. A 2D version on a sphere shows that it is really not dependent on the underlying grid.

    AviSynth AiUpscale v1.2.0

    AviSynth+ implementation of Super-Resolution Convolutional Neural

    An AviSynth+ implementation of some Super-Resolution Convolutional Neural Networks. Independent luma/chroma upscaling and chroma resampling. Two modes for Video/Photography and Line Art. KrigBilateral option for chroma upscaling/resampling. mpv user shaders of all models for real-time upscaling. Copy AiUpscale.avsi and the Shaders folder to the AviSynth+ plugins folder. The low resolution images were generated using the bicubic filter with Catmull-Rom settings, which is the method commonly used for training super-resolution networks, including those tested here. Note however that as an exception to this, the Anime4K models were trained using the average area downsampling method. The AiUpscale models used for all datasets were the "Photo" models, except for the Manga109 dataset for which the "LineArt" models were used. In the same way, the Waifu2x cunet model was used for the Manga109 dataset, and the upconv_7 model for the rest.
