Realistic neural network based image style transfer

Abstract:

A mobile device can implement a neural network-based style transfer scheme to modify an image in a first style to a second style. The style transfer scheme can be configured to detect an object in the image, apply an effect to the image, and blend the image using color space adjustments and blending schemes to generate a realistic result image. The style transfer scheme can further be configured to efficiently execute on the constrained device by removing operational layers based on resources available on the mobile device.
