Topaz Video Enhance AI model comparison 4K

Some raw real world examples of standard definition Sony XDCAM footage from a PDW-510 camcorder upconverted by Topaz Video Enhance AI using two of its most used models, Gaia High Quality and Artemis High Quality. View this video in 4K for the best effect even if you have a HD monitor. UA-cam compression can sometimes minimise the difference between the two AI models due to the effect on noise from the streaming compression.

Gaia looks best with closer shots, but adds too much flickering and artifacts with trees and such in further shots.

Would like to see comparison with source video.

0:44 Artemis forcing pattern recognition where there really aren't any patterns on the trees and grass, causing them to look sharper but "striped".
Might wanna check out Nvidia's DLSS temporal upscaling

There´s no sound!

[@jordanmillraney5481]

That’s because if he played one of the video’s sound, then he would get a copyright strike.

[@James-wd9ib]

you don't say

[@Stanser_Lagrange]

Well, Gaia is WAY better. Why did they remove it?

[@dinohoax]

I do wonder about that one, but it was awesome.

[@Stanser_Lagrange]

@@dinohoax Now we have Proteus which is even better so its fine.

Gaia looks noisy with artifacts
