[R][P] StarGAN v2: Diverse Image Synthesis for Multiple Domains
![img](ypy74yikfs241 “Diverse image synthesis results on the CelebA-HQ dataset and our newly collected animal faces (AFHQ) dataset.

Additional high-quality videos can be found at the link below.”) arXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.01865 github: https://github.com/clovaai/stargan-v2 video: shorturl.at/eACS9 Abstract A good image-to-image translation model should learn a mapping between different visual domains while satisfying the following properties: 1) diversity of generated images and 2) scalability over multiple domains. Existing methods address either of the issues, having limited diversity or multiple models for all domains. We propose StarGAN v2, a single framework that tackles both and shows significantly improved results over the baselines. Experiments on CelebA-HQ and a new animal faces dataset (AFHQ) validate our superiority in terms of visual quality, diversity, and scalability. To better assess image-to-image translation models, we release AFHQ, high-quality animal faces with large inter- and intra-domain variations. The code, pretrained models, and dataset will be released for reproducibility. submitted by /u/yunjey |
