IML | Week 9: Training Style Transfer โ€“ Yufeng

Training

As I’ve trained several models for the midterm, I only trained one this week. I did it on my own desktop with a GTX 1080 on Ubuntu for two epochs. Some artifacts are quite visible probably because the lack of epochs in training.

 

 Style Image

The style is based on a Blade Runner style poster I found on Pinterest.

In the following inferencing, I also used another one of models which I trained in the weeks before.

The other style is Convergence, 1952 by Pollock.

Inferencing

I reused the code from my midterm project to perform a multilayer style transfer. I decided to experiment on transferring to two styles back and forth

Result

The fusion of two styles works is quite effective but converges a stable effect with small “chunky” style transfer artifacts.
