    1/ Colorization of the past is almost necessarily an "art" as there's often no one right answer that can be determined. Sure...there was an actual known truth at some point but you have to ask yourself- is that last 3% worth 30,000% of the research effort?https://twitter.com/citnaj/status/1220503865692344320 …

    I'm treating it more as an aesthetic judgement as opposed to an "absolute truth" judgement. Colorization is an unconstrained problem where some colors simply cannot be determined so yes...comparing to decolorized images it'll often look like ass, honestly.

        2/ So if you're curious that's basically my stance: I care about historical accuracy, but I'm also practical and just want to make cool things and maybe even pretend I'm doing AI art for a bit. If it's pleasing to the eyes- that's a win in my book!

        I feel inverse problems have that characteristic. I think that's the reason why a lot of DL practice can be v. artistic. The same is true for math actually, you often have no right path to get to a solution, and you have to keep chiseling it till you get to something "pleasing".

        Of course colourization has the direct visual aspect to it, which makes that characterization more direct. But I often feel art arises out of optimization (according to some objective function -- visually pleasing, surprise, succinctness) of some ill posed inverse problem. :))

        Some look like ass, some look alright, some might look more interesting than original. Even for artistic model it would make sense to showcase it. But people caught on to use DeOldify for art already, so you did good regardless.
