TET-GAN: Text Effects Transfer via Stylization and Destylization

Text effects transfer technology automatically makes the text dramatically more impressive. However, previous style transfer methods either study the model for general style, which cannot handle the highly-structured text effects along the glyph, or require manual design of subtle matching criteria for text effects. In this paper, we focus on the use of the powerful representation abilities of deep neural features for text effects transfer. For this purpose, we propose a novel Texture Effects Transfer GAN (TET-GAN), which consists of a stylization subnetwork and a destylization subnetwork. The key idea is to train our network to accomplish both the objective of style transfer and style removal, so that it can learn to disentangle and recombine the content and style features of text effects images. To support the training of our network, we propose a new text effects dataset with as much as 64 professionally designed styles on 837 characters. We show that the disentangled feature representations enable us to transfer or remove all these styles on arbitrary glyphs using one network. Furthermore, the flexible network design empowers TET-GAN to efficiently extend to a new text style via one-shot learning where only one example is required. We demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method in generating high-quality stylized text over the state-of-the-art methods.Comment: Accepted by AAAI 2019.

Effectively Integrate Tourism Product Development into the Tourism Poverty Alleviation Demonstration Zone: Taking Sichuan Ebian Yi Autonomous County as an Example

In the establishment of provincial tourism poverty alleviation demonstration zones, the utilization and development of local tourism resources are inseparable. As an important part of tourism products, tourism commodities are not only an important indicator for the creation of demonstration areas, but also a key link for resource utilization and poverty alleviation. After comprehensively analyzing the practice process of tourism commodity development in the provincial-level tourism poverty alleviation demonstration zone in the bordering Ebian Yi nationality autonomous county, this paper puts forward the ideas and countermeasures for the development of tourism commodities in the establishment of provincial tourism poverty alleviation demonstration zone

Power Line Communication Input Impedance Adjustment via Network Load Measurements

Power Line Communication (PLC) allows data to be multiplexed with the power line sinusoidal waveform. We consider a lumped circuit model network representing a distribution line and typical PLC hardware on either side of the network. The distribution line is assumed to have an auxiliary load which varies but can be measured. For the modulated and multiplexed data signal to be received requires sufficient power transfer through the network. We propose a methodology to adjust the receiving end input impedance to optimize the data transfer using a power transfer metric
