I'm a computer science student in Basel. I build tools for image restoration, ML training, music and embedded systems, mostly with Python, C, C++, Java and ESP32 boards.
My portfolio and CV can be found here: hermesreisner.com.
A free, open-source desktop app for upscaling, denoising and restoring images and video on your own computer. It runs on macOS (Metal), Windows and Linux; Tauri and Svelte host, PyTorch engine. In beta.
