One of the important research topics in image generative models is to disentangle the spatial contents and styles for their separate control. Although StyleGAN can generate content feature vectors from random noises, the resulting spatial content control is primarily intended for minor spatial variations, and the disentanglement of global content and styles is by no means complete. Inspired by a mathematical understanding of normalization and attention, here we present a novel hierarchical adaptive Diagonal spatial ATtention (DAT) layers to separately manipulate the spatial contents from styles in a hierarchical manner. Using DAT and AdaIN, our method enables coarse-to-fine level disentanglement of spatial contents and styles. In addition, our generator can be easily integrated into the GAN inversion framework so that the content and style of translated images from multi-domain image translation tasks can be flexibly controlled. By using various datasets, we confirm that the proposed method not only outperforms the existing models in disentanglement scores, but also provides more flexible control over spatial features in the generated images.

Recently, image-to-image translation has made significant progress in achieving both multi-label (ie, translation conditioned on different labels) and multi-style (ie, generation with diverse styles) tasks. However, due to the unexplored independence
and exclusiveness in the labels, existing endeavors are defeated by involving uncontrolled manipulations to the translation results. In this paper, we propose Hierarchical Style Disentanglement (HiSD) to address this issue. Specifically, we organize the labels into a hierarchical tree structure, in which independent tags, exclusive attributes, and disentangled styles are allocated from top to bottom. Correspondingly, a new translation process is designed to adapt the above structure, in which the styles are identified for controllable translations. Both qualitative and quantitative results on the CelebA-HQ dataset verify the ability of the proposed HiSD. We hope our method will serve as a solid baseline and provide fresh insights with the hierarchically organized annotations for future research in image-to-image translation. The code has been released at https://github.com/imlixinyang/HiSD.
Content and style (C-S) disentanglement intends to decompose the underlying explanatory factors of objects into two independent subspaces. From the unsupervised disentanglement perspective, we rethink content and style and propose a formulation for u
nsupervised C-S disentanglement based on our assumption that different factors are of different importance and popularity for image reconstruction, which serves as a data bias. The corresponding model inductive bias is introduced by our proposed C-S disentanglement Module (C-S DisMo), which assigns different and independent roles to content and style when approximating the real data distributions. Specifically, each content embedding from the dataset, which encodes the most dominant factors for image reconstruction, is assumed to be sampled from a shared distribution across the dataset. The style embedding for a particular image, encoding the remaining factors, is used to customize the shared distribution through an affine transformation. The experiments on several popular datasets demonstrate that our method achieves the state-of-the-art unsupervised C-S disentanglement, which is comparable or even better than supervised methods. We verify the effectiveness of our method by downstream tasks: domain translation and single-view 3D reconstruction. Project page at https://github.com/xrenaa/CS-DisMo.
Existing remote sensing change detection methods are heavily affected by seasonal variation. Since vegetation colors are different between winter and summer, such variations are inclined to be falsely detected as changes. In this letter, we proposed
an image translation method to solve the problem. A style-based recalibration module is introduced to capture seasonal features effectively. Then, a new style discriminator is designed to improve the translation performance. The discriminator can not only produce a decision for the fake or real sample, but also return a style vector according to the channel-wise correlations. Extensive experiments are conducted on season-varying dataset. The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively perform image translation, thereby consistently improving the season-varying image change detection performance. Our codes and data are available at https://github.com/summitgao/RSIT_SRM_ISD.
A recent spate of state-of-the-art semi- and un-supervised solutions disentangle and encode image content into a spatial tensor and image appearance or style into a vector, to achieve good performance in spatially equivariant tasks (e.g. image-to-ima
ge translation). To achieve this, they employ different model design, learning objective, and data biases. While considerable effort has been made to measure disentanglement in vector representations, and assess its impact on task performance, such analysis for (spatial) content - style disentanglement is lacking. In this paper, we conduct an empirical study to investigate the role of different biases in content-style disentanglement settings and unveil the relationship between the degree of disentanglement and task performance. In particular, we consider the setting where we: (i) identify key design choices and learning constraints for three popular content-style disentanglement models; (ii) relax or remove such constraints in an ablation fashion; and (iii) use two metrics to measure the degree of disentanglement and assess its effect on each task performance. Our experiments reveal that there is a sweet spot between disentanglement, task performance and - surprisingly - content interpretability, suggesting that blindly forcing for higher disentanglement can hurt model performance and content factors semanticness. Our findings, as well as the used task-independent metrics, can be used to guide the design and selection of new models for tasks where content-style representations are useful.
The key procedure of haze image translation through adversarial training lies in the disentanglement between the feature only involved in haze synthesis, i.e.style feature, and the feature representing the invariant semantic content, i.e. content fea
ture. Previous methods separate content feature apart by utilizing it to classify haze image during the training process. However, in this paper we recognize the incompleteness of the content-style disentanglement in such technical routine. The flawed style feature entangled with content information inevitably leads the ill-rendering of the haze images. To address, we propose a self-supervised style regression via stochastic linear interpolation to reduce the content information in style feature. The ablative experiments demonstrate the disentangling completeness and its superiority in level-aware haze image synthesis. Moreover, the generated haze data are applied in the testing generalization of vehicle detectors. Further study between haze-level and detection performance shows that haze has obvious impact on the generalization of the vehicle detectors and such performance degrading level is linearly correlated to the haze-level, which, in turn, validates the effectiveness of the proposed method.
