Photorealistic style transfer is the task of transferring the artistic style of an image onto a content target, producing a result that is plausibly taken with a camera. Recent approaches, based on deep neural networks, produce impressive results but are either too slow to run at practical resolutions, or still contain objectionable artifacts. We propose a new end-to-end model for photorealistic style transfer that is both fast and inherently generates photorealistic results. The core of our approach is a feed-forward neural network that learns local edge-aware affine transforms that automatically obey the photorealism constraint. When trained on a diverse set of images and a variety of styles, our model can robustly apply style transfer to an arbitrary pair of input images. Compared to the state of the art, our method produces visually superior results and is three orders of magnitude faster, enabling real-time performance at 4K on a mobile phone. We validate our method with ablation and user studies.

We present a novel algorithm for transferring artistic styles of semantically meaningful local regions of an image onto local regions of a target video while preserving its photorealism. Local regions may be selected either fully automatically from a n image, through using video segmentation algorithms, or from casual user guidance such as scribbles. Our method, based on a deep neural network architecture inspired by recent work in photorealistic style transfer, is real-time and works on arbitrary inputs without runtime optimization once trained on a diverse dataset of artistic styles. By augmenting our video dataset with noisy semantic labels and jointly optimizing over style, content, mask, and temporal losses, our method can cope with a variety of imperfections in the input and produce temporally coherent videos without visual artifacts. We demonstrate our method on a variety of style images and target videos, including the ability to transfer different styles onto multiple objects simultaneously, and smoothly transition between styles in time.
Artistic style transfer is the problem of synthesizing an image with content similar to a given image and style similar to another. Although recent feed-forward neural networks can generate stylized images in real-time, these models produce a single stylization given a pair of style/content images, and the user doesnt have control over the synthesized output. Moreover, the style transfer depends on the hyper-parameters of the model with varying optimum for different input images. Therefore, if the stylized output is not appealing to the user, she/he has to try multiple models or retrain one with different hyper-parameters to get a favorite stylization. In this paper, we address these issues by proposing a novel method which allows adjustment of crucial hyper-parameters, after the training and in real-time, through a set of manually adjustable parameters. These parameters enable the user to modify the synthesized outputs from the same pair of style/content images, in search of a favorite stylized image. Our quantitative and qualitative experiments indicate how adjusting these parameters is comparable to retraining the model with different hyper-parameters. We also demonstrate how these parameters can be randomized to generate results which are diverse but still very similar in style and content.
Style transfer aims to combine the content of one image with the artistic style of another. It was discovered that lower levels of convolutional networks captured style information, while higher levels captures content information. The original style transfer formulation used a weighted combination of VGG-16 layer activations to achieve this goal. Later, this was accomplished in real-time using a feed-forward network to learn the optimal combination of style and content features from the respective images. The first aim of our project was to introduce a framework for capturing the style from several images at once. We propose a method that extends the original real-time style transfer formulation by combining the features of several style images. This method successfully captures color information from the separate style images. The other aim of our project was to improve the temporal style continuity from frame to frame. Accordingly, we have experimented with the temporal stability of the output images and discussed the various available techniques that could be employed as alternatives.
Recently, style transfer has received a lot of attention. While much of this research has aimed at speeding up processing, the approaches are still lacking from a principled, art historical standpoint: a style is more than just a single image or an a rtist, but previous work is limited to only a single instance of a style or shows no benefit from more images. Moreover, previous work has relied on a direct comparison of art in the domain of RGB images or on CNNs pre-trained on ImageNet, which requires millions of labeled object bounding boxes and can introduce an extra bias, since it has been assembled without artistic consideration. To circumvent these issues, we propose a style-aware content loss, which is trained jointly with a deep encoder-decoder network for real-time, high-resolution stylization of images and videos. We propose a quantitative measure for evaluating the quality of a stylized image and also have art historians rank patches from our approach against those from previous work. These and our qualitative results ranging from small image patches to megapixel stylistic images and videos show that our approach better captures the subtle nature in which a style affects content.

Extracting effective deep features to represent content and style information is the key to universal style transfer. Most existing algorithms use VGG19 as the feature extractor, which incurs a high computational cost and impedes real-time style tran sfer on high-resolution images. In this work, we propose a lightweight alternative architecture - ArtNet, which is based on GoogLeNet, and later pruned by a novel channel pruning method named Zero-channel Pruning specially designed for style transfer approaches. Besides, we propose a theoretically sound sandwich swap transform (S2) module to transfer deep features, which can create a pleasing holistic appearance and good local textures with an improved content preservation ability. By using ArtNet and S2, our method is 2.3 to 107.4 times faster than state-of-the-art approaches. The comprehensive experiments demonstrate that ArtNet can achieve universal, real-time, and high-quality style transfer on high-resolution images simultaneously, (68.03 FPS on 512 times 512 images).
