ATTRIBUTE DECORRELATION TECHNIQUES FOR IMAGE EDITING

Abstract:

Systems and methods generate a filtering function for editing an image with reduced attribute correlation. An image editing system groups training data into bins according to a distribution of a target attribute. For each bin, the system samples a subset of the training data based on a pre-determined target distribution of a set of additional attributes in the training data. The system identifies a direction in the sampled training data corresponding to the distribution of the target attribute to generate a filtering vector for modifying the target attribute in an input image, obtains a latent space representation of an input image, applies the filtering vector to the latent space representation of the input image to generate a filtered latent space representation of the input image, and provides the filtered latent space representation as input to a neural network to generate an output image with a modification to the target attribute.
