If you want a terabyte or two of .CR2 (Canon’s “RAW” file format) files of astrophotography to train on, let me know. They were taken on a camera sensor that had a full spectrum IR conversion performed on it.

All I ask is that you share your findings with me and don’t redistribute the image data set without confirming with me.

Yes, absolutely! That sounds wonderful, and we certainly won't redistribute the data without asking.

We have a server with a 24TB NAS. If you send me your ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub key, I can add you to it and you can upload straight to the NAS. Would that work?

I have an event to go to today, but if you hop into our ML discord server (https://github.com/shawwn/tpunicorn#ml-community) and DM me (I'm shawn), we can figure out the details. Or email me ([email protected]).

Thanks so much! This is exactly what I had in mind when I was writing my comment. I think it would be straightforward to extend StyleGAN to synthesize full spectrum data. And the results would look pretty darn cool.
