Sheet Music Watermark Removal & Upscale

UNet & VDSR Pipeline

STAR Summary

  • Trained a UNet model on paired page images for watermark removal.
  • Upscaled low-resolution scans (e.g., ~612x792) to print-friendly resolution (e.g., ~1700x2200) with Very Deep Super-Resolution (VDSR).
  • Wrapped it in a simple GUI so I could run the full pipeline.
  • Typical runs produce cleaner, more readable output in seconds per page (hardware- and batch-dependent).

Notes

Designed for low-resolution, watermarked page images; output quality depends on scan quality and staff-line preservation.
