            Released in 2016, this net automatically colorizes a grayscale image, exploiting a combination of local and global image features. Local features are extracted in a fully convolutional fashion, while the extraction of global features was developed leveraging the labels of the ImageNet Competition dataset during training.

Evaluation function
This net takes a grayscale image as input and outputs the A and B channels in the LAB color space. It needs an evaluation function to merge its output with the luminance of the input:
Basic usage
Colorize a grayscale image using the evaluation function:
