azure-sdk-for-js VS Bringing-Old-Photos-Back-to-Life

If you can't and have to deal with this time bomb. Simply use the azure sdk https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js

One of the things I tried was opting into the Interactive Browser of the DefaultAzureCredential as described in that blog post. But even though, I could see the browser method in the src (https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/blob/main/sdk/identity/identity/src/credentials/defaultAzureCredential.browser.ts), I couldn't figure how to opt into this when using the actual SDK. I couldn't find that method in the npm package in Azure Identity, and the documentation (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/api/@azure/identity/defaultazurecredentialoptions?view=azure-node-latest) didn't help me either. If this is the correct option for my use case, I would like to understand how to opt into it and use it.

In the meantime an new library arrived (Link) that support state-of-the-art JavaScript and TypeScript. To be honest, I was too lazy to switch, as the API changed a bit or maybe I just wanted to keep some work for later improvement ... who knows 😇

JavaScript

Azure/azure-sdk-for-js (TypeScript): This repository is for active development of the Azure SDK for JavaScript (NodeJS & Browser). For consumers of the SDK we recommend visiting our public developer docs at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/azure/ or our versioned developer docs at https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk-for-js.

This is an Extension that integrates Bringing Old Photos Back to Life, an old photo restoration algorithm, into the Automatic1111 Webui, as suggested by this post. User can process a photo, then send it to img2img or Inpaint for further refinement.

Is there anyone in this subreddit that could make an Auto1111 extension out of this: https://github.com/microsoft/Bringing-Old-Photos-Back-to-Life

This seems to do exactly the same and is the original source of the scratch detection model that is used in OPs version.

Thanks, if you are taking requests :-) - The inclusion of (or integration with) a facility like this https://github.com/microsoft/Bringing-Old-Photos-Back-to-Life would be very nice !

Why a GAN specifically? There's Bringing Old Photos Back to Life for example, but it uses VAEs, not a GAN.

Thank you. Photo-restore + Deoldify + Animegan + Rife + 4K upscale

Bringing Old Photos to Life

I was recently looking at the microsoft/Bringing-Old-Photos-Back-to-Life repo to use on some old photo. While there is no doubt that the models were created by very smart data scientists, the repo is not very well organized and cumbersome to setup. I think data scientists coming from math/statistics background may not be familiar with software design best practices, and somehow just gets by with infrastructure setup.
