A deep learning application for interactively colorizing black and white images with user-guided hints, based on the SIGGRAPH 2017 paper 'Real-Time User-Guided Image Colorization with Learned Deep Priors'. It provides both a full Qt GUI demo and a barebones iPython notebook demo, with Caffe and PyTorch backends.

Use cases

  • colorize black and white photos with a few clicks
  • add color hints to grayscale images interactively
  • restore color to old family photographs
  • experiment with user-guided deep colorization models
  • run the local hints network colorization demo
  • try global hints based image colorization

When to choose

  • you need interactive, user-guided colorization rather than fully automatic colorization
  • you want to reproduce or build on the SIGGRAPH 2017 colorization research
  • you have a CUDA GPU or are okay with slower CPU inference
  • you want a research-grade tool with both GUI and notebook interfaces

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained production tool with modern dependency support
  • you want fully automatic batch colorization without user hints
  • you cannot install legacy Caffe or old PyTorch versions
  • you need a simple library API rather than a demo application
