A cli application which trains the models for style images and stylizes the content images based on the style model selected. This tool is based on the paper by Perceptual Losses for Real-Time Style Transfer and Super-Resolution and Instance Normalization.
Check out the live demo of these models at bit.ly/stylizeapp
GitHub repo for the website: Stylize App
The tool is written in Python and uses Pytorch and SciPy. A GPU is not required but it can significantly speed up the process of training, the styling however can be done using CPU of a normal laptop or computer as well using the saved models.
from Johnson et al
Model makes use of a Transformation Network which converts the input image into output image. We use a loss network pretrained for image classification to define perceptual loss functions that measure perceptual differences in content and style between the images. The loss network remains fixed during the training process.

python stylize.py --content-image </path/to/content/image> --model </path/to/saved/model> --output-image </path/to/output/image> --cuda 0--content-image: path to the content image you want to style.--model: saved model for the style to be applied.--output-image: path to the output image(with name and extension).--cuda: set 1 if you have cuda and a GPU else 0--content-scale: factor by which you want to scale down the image(for low memory issues). (Optional, default: None)--style-strength: the strength of style to be applied. (Optional, default: 1)
python train.py --dataset </path/to/train-dataset> --style-image </path/to/style/image> --save-model-dir </path/to/save-model/folder> --epochs 2 --cuda 1--dataset: path to where the training dataset is stored. (Use COCO 2014 Training images dataset).--style-image: path to the style image on which the model is to be trained. (Optional, default:'images/style-images/mosaic.jpg')--save-model-dir: path to which the model will be saved after training.--cuda: set 1 if you have cuda and a GPU else 0--epochs: No. of epochs (Optional, default: 2)--batch-size: Batch size used by trainloader (Optional, default: 4)--checkpoint-model-dir: path to folder where checkpoints of trained models will be saved. (Optional, default: None)--image-size: size of training images. (Optional, default: 256)--style-size: size of style-image, default is the original size of style image. (Optional, default: None)--seed: random seed for training. (Optional, default: 42)--content-weight: weight for content-loss. This may vary for every style. (Optional, default: 1e5)--style-weight: weight for style-loss. This may vary for every style. (Optional, default: 1e10)--lr: learning rate. (Optional, deafult: 1e3)--checkpoint-interval: number of batches after which a checkpoint of the trained model will be created. (Optional, default: 2000)
The hyper-parameters content-weight and style-weight may be altered depending on the style to be trained on for better results.
