GFPGAN is a Python library built on PyTorch that restores and enhances real-world degraded face photos using GAN-based priors. It provides pretrained models and a CLI/inference API for blind face restoration and super-resolution.
Use cases
- restore old blurry face photos
- enhance low-quality portrait images
- upscale faces in photos with super-resolution
- fix faces in AI-generated images
- batch enhance family photo archives
- integrate face restoration into an image pipeline
When to choose
- you need practical, pretrained blind face restoration without training your own model
- you want a pip-installable PyTorch library with CPU and GPU support
- you need to enhance faces in real-world degraded photos
When to avoid
- you need general image restoration beyond faces
- you require a permissively licensed dependency (license is non-standard despite Apache badge)
- you need actively developed cutting-edge models, as development has slowed
