WEIGHT DEMODULATION FOR A GENERATIVE NEURAL NETWORK

Abstract:

A style-based generative network architecture enables scale-specific control of synthesized output data, such as images. During training, the style-based generative neural network (generator neural network) includes a mapping network and a synthesis network. During prediction, the mapping network may be omitted, replicated, or evaluated several times. The synthesis network may be used to generate highly varied, high-quality output data with a wide variety of attributes. For example, when used to generate images of people's faces, the attributes that may vary are age, ethnicity, camera viewpoint, pose, face shape, eyeglasses, colors (eyes, hair, etc.), hair style, lighting, background, etc. Depending on the task, generated output data may include images, audio, video, three-dimensional (3D) objects, text, etc.
