Features
ARC Lab currently provides three special features: portrait restoration, portrait cutout and animation enhancement. These features are developed based on ARC's latest research results in the field of vision and have high accuracy and effect. Let's introduce these three features separately.
Portrait Restoration
Portrait restoration refers to the process of refining, completing or improving the quality of blurred, damaged or low-quality portrait photos to restore their original appearance or make them more beautiful. Portrait restoration is a very valuable and challenging task, because portrait photos often have high emotional value, and the details and expressions of the face are very complex, which is difficult to restore or improve using traditional image processing methods.
ARC Lab's portrait restoration function is developed based on deep learning methods. It can automatically identify the position, outline and features of the face, and then perform restoration based on the trained model. ARC Lab's portrait restoration function can handle different degrees of blur, noise, occlusion, missing and other problems, and can effectively improve the clarity, completeness and beauty of portrait photos. ARC Lab's portrait restoration function can also retain the original style and expression of the face, avoiding excessive modification or distortion.

Arc Lab's portrait restoration function can help users restore or improve their precious memories, and also allow users to have more beautiful selfies.
Portrait Cutout
Portrait cutout refers to separating a portrait from the background to form a transparent background image, which is convenient for users to edit or synthesize later. Portrait cutout is a very common and in-demand task, because users often want to use their own or other people's photos for different occasions and purposes, such as changing the background, making emoticons, making posters, etc. Portrait cutout is also a very difficult and time-consuming task, because there are often fuzzy, similar or complex boundaries between the portrait and the background, which are difficult to accurately and quickly cut out using traditional image segmentation methods.
ARC Lab's portrait cutout function is developed based on deep learning methods. It can automatically identify all portraits in the picture and accurately segment the edges and details of each portrait. ARC Lab's portrait cutout function can handle diverse portraits of different angles, postures, clothing, hairstyles, etc., and can effectively cut out clear, complete and natural portraits. ARC Lab's portrait cutout function can also retain a transparent background, which is convenient for users to edit or synthesize later.

Anime Enhancement
Anime enhancement refers to operations such as clarifying, sharpening or adding details to anime-style images to make them more vivid and realistic. Anime enhancement is a very interesting and demanding task because anime-style images often have high aesthetic and artistic value.
Moreover, anime fans often want to convert their own or other people's photos into anime style, or improve the quality of anime pictures. Anime enhancement is also a very difficult and complex task, because anime-style pictures often have many details and features, which are difficult to restore or improve using traditional image processing methods.
ARC Lab's animation enhancement function is developed based on deep learning methods. It can automatically identify anime-style images and enhance them according to the trained model. ARC Lab's animation enhancement function can process a variety of anime images of different styles, types, resolutions, etc., and can effectively improve the clarity, sharpness and details of anime images. ARC Lab's animation enhancement function can also retain the original style and color of anime images to avoid over-processing or distortion.
