A project I did a while back for shits and giggles was a neural network that learned off random photos what natural coloring looked lik for various objects and faces. Then you could feed it random black and white photos and it would try to color them. Only spent a few days on it for fun, and as you can see the results were not perfect (had some artifacts). but the results were surprisingly good if you ignore the blemishes.
@freemo@Science I only used the "DeOldify" feature in MyHeritage to re-colorize a photograph of my farewell party when I (temporarily?) bailed from Trumpland in late 2017. From left to right: Jason Antic, me, Lyndi Antic, Emily Burke.
@tatzelbrumm very cool!
