Most existing style transfer methods follow the assumption that styles can be represented with global statistics (e.g., Gram matrices or covariance matrices), and thus address the problem by forcing the output and style images to have similar global statistics. An alternative is the assumption of local style patterns, where algorithms are designed to swap similar local features of content and style images. However, the limitation of these existing methods is that they neglect the semantic structure of the content image which may lead to corrupted content structure in the output. In this paper, we make a new assumption that image features from the same semantic region form a manifold and an image with multiple semantic regions follows a multi-manifold distribution. Based on this assumption, the style transfer problem is formulated as aligning two multi-manifold distributions and a Manifold Alignment based Style Transfer (MAST) framework is proposed. The proposed framework allows semantically similar regions between the output and the style image share similar style patterns. Moreover, the proposed manifold alignment method is flexible to allow user editing or using semantic segmentation maps as guidance for style transfer. To allow the method to be applicable to photorealistic style transfer, we propose a new adaptive weight skip connection network structure to preserve the content details. Extensive experiments verify the effectiveness of the proposed framework for both artistic and photorealistic style transfer. Code is available at https://github.com/NJUHuoJing/MAST.
Arbitrary image style transfer is a challenging task which aims to stylize a content image conditioned on an arbitrary style image. In this task the content-style feature transformation is a critical component for a proper fusion of features. Existin
We propose a densely semantically aligned person re-identification framework. It fundamentally addresses the body misalignment problem caused by pose/viewpoint variations, imperfect person detection, occlusion, etc. By leveraging the estimation of th
Universal Neural Style Transfer (NST) methods are capable of performing style transfer of arbitrary styles in a style-agnostic manner via feature transforms in (almost) real-time. Even though their unimodal parametric style modeling approach has been
Neural Style Transfer (NST) has quickly evolved from single-style to infinite-style models, also known as Arbitrary Style Transfer (AST). Although appealing results have been widely reported in literature, our empirical studies on four well-known AST
How can we edit or transform the geometric or color property of a point cloud? In this study, we propose a neural style transfer method for point clouds which allows us to transfer the style of geometry or color from one point cloud either independen
