显著区域保留的图像风格迁移算法

基于神经网络的风格迁移成为近年来学术界和工业界的热点研究问题之一.现有的方法可以将不同风格作用在给定的内容图像上生成风格化图像,并且在视觉效果和转换效率上有了较大提升,而侧重学习图像底层特征容易导致风格化图像丢失内容图像的语义信息.据此提出了使风格化图像与内容图像的显著区域保持一致的改进方案.通过加入显著性检测网络生成...

Style transfer algorithm for salient region preservation

Style transfer based on neural networks has become one of the hot research issues in academia and industry in recent years.Existing methods can apply different styles to a given content image to generate a stylized image and greatly enhance visual effects and conversion efficiency.However,these methods focus on learning the underlying features of the image,easily leading to the loss of content image semantic information of stylized images.Based on this,an improved scheme was proposed to match the salient area of the stylized image with that of the content image.By adding a saliency detection network to generate a saliency map of the composite image and the content image,the loss of the saliency map was calculated during the training process,so that the composite image could almost maintain a saliency area consistent with that of the content image,which is conducive to improving the stylized image.The experiment shows that the stylized image generated by the style transfer model can not only produce better visual effects,but also retains the semantic information of the content image.Ensuring the undistorted ness of salient areas is a significant prerequisite for generating visually friendly images,especially for the content image with prominent salient areas.
