“The Colorization Based on Self-Attention Mechanism and GAN”, Jifeng Sun, Yibin Lin, Shuai Zhao2023-09-15 (Danbooru AI, GAN)⁠:

Grayscale image colorization is a process of adding reasonable color information to an image, and converting grayscale images into color images is an important and difficult image processing task.

The process of colorization is to predict the color information corresponding to the grayscale image by the colorization model.

In this paper, the proposed multi-scale input adversarial generative network coloring model with multi-scale input is the colorization scheme based on self-attention mechanism and GAN is proposed in this paper.

The experimental result on the colorization of grayscale cartoon images shows the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
