It is one year old project with no updates at github.

Yes I noticed that, but I thought, or maybe hoped that there was something I was missing.

Do you have any information about IFRNet updates?

Great news!

nihui, who has made a very important optimisation of the AI RIFE algorithm for Tensor Cores and thanks to which we can already use this algorithm to interpolate 1080p files in real time....

an hour ago he published the full packages of the new AI interpolation algorithm optimised for Tensor Cores - IFRNet ncnn Vulkan

IFRNet algorithm source code:

So the obvious question is how do we use this? Can we use it with SVP or do we have to wait to see if the DEVs can (or want to) incorporate it?

For me, mainly interested in real-time interpolation, the IFRNet small interpolation model is particularly interesting:

RIFE 35.62 PSNR Vimeo90K vs. IFRNet small 35.59 PSNR Vimeo90K

Time:

RIFE 0.026 s  vs. IFRNet small 0.019 s

Source: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.14620.pdf

Practically similar quality with a 27% reduction in interpolation time.
