SETUP for NEURAL-ENHANCE on Ubuntu 16.04 / 171226 https://github.com/alexjc/neural-enhance

1. Remove old versions of Docker sudo apt-get remove docker docker-engine docker.io

2. Docker dependencies sudo apt-get install
   apt-transport-https
   ca-certificates
   curl
   software-properties-common

3. Add Docker repo key curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -

4. Add Docker repo sudo add-apt-repository
   "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu
   $(lsb_release -cs)
   stable"

5. Install Docker sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install docker-ce

6. Install Neural-Enhance Docker image sudo docker run --rm -v pwd:/ne/input -it alexjc/neural-enhance --help

7. Add an alias to your .bashrc alias enhance='function ne() { sudo docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)/dirname ${@:$#}":/ne/input -it alexjc/neural-enhance ${@:1:$#-1} "input/basename ${@:$#}"; }; ne'

8. Run a test command: enhance --zoom=1 --model=repair images/broken.jpg enhance --zoom=2 "images/*.jpg"

Notes:

• By default the Docker container assumes that input files are in a subdirectory of the GitHub repo ./input .
• The --model=repair switch only works together with --zoom=1. Use it to clean up the output of higher zoom levels in a separate pass.
• You can also use the repair switch to clean up an image resized in other software.
