[ECCV'22] Language-Driven Artistic Style Transfer

A PyTorch implementation of LDAST

Paper | Project | Slide | Video

Overview

LDAST is an implementation of
"Language-Driven Artistic Style Transfer"
Tsu-Jui Fu, Xin Eric Wang, and William Yang Wang
in European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) 2022

Language visual artist (LVA) extracts content structures from C and visual patterns from X to perform LDAST. LVA adopts the patch-wise style discriminator D to connect extracted visual semantics to patches of paired style image (P_S). Contrastive reasoning (CR) allows comparing contrastive pairs C₁-X₁, C₂-X₁, and C₂-X₂ of content image and style instruction.

Requirements

This code is implemented under Python 3.8, PyTorch 1.7, and Torchvision 0.8.

• tqdm
• CLIP

Usage

Dataset

The dataset includes content images and visual attribute instructions (DTD).
Please visit WikiArt and here for emotional effect instructions (ArtEmis).

Train

Put sanet.pt in ./_ckpt and dtd.pkl in ./_data.

python train_lva.py
python train_ctr.py

Inference & GUI

Put clva_dtd.pt in ./_ckpt.

python inference.py
python gui.py
