“Arrival of the train” in high definition: Neural networks restored the film of the Lumiere brothers

Enthusiasts took advantage of the capabilities of neural networks in order to restore the legendary black and white silent film Lumiere brothersArrival at La Ciotat train station“(Arrivée d’un train à La Ciotat), which was released back in 1896. Now you can enjoy 4K / 60fps audio with a short film, and the color version is also available.

To implement the project, the creators of the remaster used Gigapixel ai and method Depth-Aware Video Frame Interpolation (DAIN) Coloring the film helped DeOldify Neural Network.

The final result is impressive, although it did not turn out perfect. However, now “Arrival of the train at La Ciotat station” is more like a documentary section of the era.
