Deep image generation is becoming a tool to enhance artists and designers creativity potential. In this paper, we aim at making the generation process more structured and easier to interact with. Inspired by vector graphics systems, we propose a new deep image reconstruction paradigm where the outputs are composed from simple layers, defined by their color and a vector transparency mask. This presents a number of advantages compared to the commonly used convolutional network architectures. In particular, our layered decomposition allows simple user interaction, for example to update a given mask, or change the color of a selected layer. From a compact code, our architecture also generates vector images with a virtually infinite resolution, the color at each point in an image being a parametric function of its coordinates. We validate the efficiency of our approach by comparing reconstructions with state-of-the-art baselines given similar memory resources on CelebA and ImageNet datasets. Most importantly, we demonstrate several applications of our new image representation obtained in an unsupervised manner, including editing, vectorization and image search.
Intrinsic image decomposition, which is an essential task in computer vision, aims to infer the reflectance and shading of the scene. It is challenging since it needs to separate one image into two components. To tackle this, conventional methods int
We present and study a novel task named Blind Image Decomposition (BID), which requires separating a superimposed image into constituent underlying images in a blind setting, that is, both the source components involved in mixing as well as the mixin
The ability to decompose scenes in terms of abstract building blocks is crucial for general intelligence. Where those basic building blocks share meaningful properties, interactions and other regularities across scenes, such decompositions can simpli
We propose a deep neural network architecture to infer dense depth from an image and a sparse point cloud. It is trained using a video stream and corresponding synchronized sparse point cloud, as obtained from a LIDAR or other range sensor, along wit
Unsupervised image-to-image translation techniques are able to map local texture between two domains, but they are typically unsuccessful when the domains require larger shape change. Inspired by semantic segmentation, we introduce a discriminator wi
