FaceShop: Deep Sketch-based Face Image Editing
We present a novel system for sketch-based face image editing, enabling users
to edit images intuitively by sketching a few strokes on a region of interest.
Our interface features tools to express a desired image manipulation by
providing both geometry and color constraints as user-drawn strokes. As an
alternative to the direct user input, our proposed system naturally supports a
copy-paste mode, which allows users to edit a given image region by using parts
of another exemplar image without the need of hand-drawn sketching at all. The
proposed interface runs in real-time and facilitates an interactive and
iterative workflow to quickly express the intended edits. Our system is based
on a novel sketch domain and a convolutional neural network trained end-to-end
to automatically learn to render image regions corresponding to the input
strokes. To achieve high quality and semantically consistent results we train
our neural network on two simultaneous tasks, namely image completion and image
translation. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to combine these
two tasks in a unified framework for interactive image editing. Our results
show that the proposed sketch domain, network architecture, and training
procedure generalize well to real user input and enable high quality synthesis
results without additional post-processing.Comment: 13 pages, 20 figure
CanvasGAN: A simple baseline for text to image generation by incrementally patching a canvas
We propose a new recurrent generative model for generating images from text
captions while attending on specific parts of text captions. Our model creates
images by incrementally adding patches on a "canvas" while attending on words
from text caption at each timestep. Finally, the canvas is passed through an
upscaling network to generate images. We also introduce a new method for
generating visual-semantic sentence embeddings based on self-attention over
text. We compare our model's generated images with those generated Reed et.
al.'s model and show that our model is a stronger baseline for text to image
generation tasks.Comment: CVC 201
TextureGAN: Controlling Deep Image Synthesis with Texture Patches
In this paper, we investigate deep image synthesis guided by sketch, color,
and texture. Previous image synthesis methods can be controlled by sketch and
color strokes but we are the first to examine texture control. We allow a user
to place a texture patch on a sketch at arbitrary locations and scales to
control the desired output texture. Our generative network learns to synthesize
objects consistent with these texture suggestions. To achieve this, we develop
a local texture loss in addition to adversarial and content loss to train the
generative network. We conduct experiments using sketches generated from real
images and textures sampled from a separate texture database and results show
that our proposed algorithm is able to generate plausible images that are
faithful to user controls. Ablation studies show that our proposed pipeline can
generate more realistic images than adapting existing methods directly.Comment: CVPR 2018 spotligh
