+## Workflow
+
+### 1. Render Raw Frames
-Apply circuit board style:
+Generate raw 3D renders as input:
```bash
-python3 image_style_processor.py ./photos ./output circuit_board
+./build/demo64k --headless --duration 5 --output training/input/
```
-Create glitch art:
+### 2. Generate Stylized Targets

+ --input training/input \
+ --target training/output \
+ --epochs 500 \
+ --checkpoint-every 50
```
-## Output
+### 4. Rebuild Demo
-- Processed images are saved to the output directory with **the same filename** as the input
-- Supported input formats: PNG, JPG, JPEG (case-insensitive)
-- Output format: PNG (preserves quality)
-- Original images are never modified
+Weights auto-exported to `cnn_weights_generated.wgsl`:
+```bash
+cmake --build build -j4
+./build/demo64k
+```
-## Style Comparison
+---
-### Sketch Styles
-- **pencil_sketch**: Most detailed, traditional drawing look
-- **ink_drawing**: Boldest, most graphic/comic-like
-- **charcoal_pastel**: Softest, most artistic/painterly
-- **conte_crayon**: Most directional, follows contours
-- **gesture_sketch**: Loosest, most expressive
+## Tips
-### Futuristic Styles
-- **circuit_board**: Cleanest, most technical/blueprint-like
-- **glitch_art**: Most chaotic, digital corruption aesthetic
-- **wireframe_topo**: Most structured, topographic/hologram feel
-- **data_mosaic**: Most geometric, fragmented cells
-- **holographic_scan**: Most retro-futuristic, HUD/CRT display
+- **Training data:** 10-50 image pairs recommended
+- **Resolution:** 256×256 (auto-resized during training)
+- **Checkpoints:** Save every 50-100 epochs for long runs
+- **Loss plateaus:** Try lower learning rate (0.0001) or more layers
+- **Residual connection:** Prevents catastrophic divergence (input always blended in)
-## Tips
+---
-- Images are automatically converted to grayscale before processing
-- All styles work best with high-resolution images (300+ DPI recommended)
-- Processing time varies by style:
- - Fast: ink_drawing, glitch_art, holographic_scan
- - Medium: charcoal_pastel, gesture_sketch, circuit_board, wireframe_topo
- - Slow: pencil_sketch, conte_crayon, data_mosaic (due to intensive computation)
-- For batch processing large collections, consider processing in smaller batches
-- Randomized styles (glitch_art, gesture_sketch, data_mosaic) will produce slightly different results each run
+## Coordinate-Aware Layer 0
-## Technical Notes
+Layer 0 receives normalized (x,y) patch center coordinates, enabling position-dependent effects:
-### Randomization
-Some styles use randomization for natural variation:
-- **glitch_art**: Random scan line shifts, block positions
-- **gesture_sketch**: Random line wobble, stroke placement
-- **data_mosaic**: Random Voronoi cell centers
-- **circuit_board**: Random pattern placement in dark regions
-- **holographic_scan**: Random glitch line positions
+- **Vignetting:** Darker edges
+- **Radial gradients:** Center-focused stylization
+- **Corner effects:** Edge-specific treatments
-### Processing Details
-- **pencil_sketch**: Uses 5-level progressive cross-hatching algorithm
-- **conte_crayon**: Follows Sobel gradients for directional strokes
-- **wireframe_topo**: Generates 20 brightness-based contour levels
-- **data_mosaic**: Creates 200 Voronoi cells via nearest-neighbor algorithm
-- **holographic_scan**: Applies scanline patterns and interference waves
+Training coordinate grid is auto-generated during forward pass. No manual intervention needed.
