dipstick Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 For your amusement only.... A team in Wasada University(Japan) published a technical document, a code sample and a Web service, showing how is it possible to turn a grey scale image into full color.The Web service:http://colorize.dev.kaisou.misosi.ru/Instruction:1. Click on the big blue button and choose a file2. Click on the right blue button3. Wait The algorithm uses AI (Artificial Intelligence) to accomplish the results. It isn't perfect, but it could be used as a starting point to which you could further modify using Hue/Saturation and so on.... Example: Marilyn Monroe B/W: Marilyn Monroe Colorized (default): 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximilian Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Looks interesting. Thanks from me too! Just out of curiosity I've been trying to emulate some of this coloring with the color effects I have in my PdN, but to no avail so far. I suppose they are really using an innovative approach for this tool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beng79 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 I have any number of old B/W photos and negatives that I'd like to colorize. I have searched the plugins list for a solution, but found only the difficult ones. Some time ago researchers from University of California published the code for a "neural network" solution, that would automate colorization of B/W images. The code is free for all to use, and if I were a programmer I'd have had a go at making a plugin for Paint.net. As it is I am only an experienced computer user, but that's all. You can find the more info and the code at http://richzhang.github.io/colorization/. Perhaps there is someone on this forum that has the savvy to fix it.
