Transferring image style to content of a digital image

Abstract:

In implementations of transferring image style to content of a digital image, an image editing system includes an encoder that extracts features from a content image and features from a style image. A whitening and color transform generates coarse features from the content and style features extracted by the encoder for one pass of encoding and decoding. Hence, the processing delay and memory requirements are low. A feature transfer module iteratively transfers style features to the coarse feature map and generates a fine feature map. The image editing system fuses the fine features with the coarse features, and a decoder generates an output image with content of the content image in a style of the style image from the fused features. Accordingly, the image editing system efficiently transfers an image style to image content in real-time, without undesirable artifacts in the output image.
