## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 23/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 0, release rhythm 8, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 3078, "days_push": 1443, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_license
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
Official PyTorch implementation of MUNIT (ECCV 2018), a GAN-based model for multimodal unsupervised image-to-image translation. The repository is no longer maintained; NVIDIA points users to the improved implementation in the imaginaire project.

## Use cases
- translate images between domains without paired data
- generate multiple plausible outputs from one input image
- convert edges to shoes or handbags
- season transfer like summer to winter photos
- example-guided image translation
- reproduce MUNIT paper experiments

## When to choose
- studying or reproducing the MUNIT ECCV 2018 paper
- research on multimodal unsupervised image translation
- non-commercial academic use with GAN-based translation

## When to avoid
- you need maintained or production-ready code
- commercial use (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license)
- you want the improved implementation - use NVlabs/imaginaire instead
- modern Python environments (code targets Python 2.7/3.6)

## Facets
