The repository contains PyTorch implementation of the Gatys et al. paper with some modifications. In the paper, the authors proposed algorithm that transfers style from one input image (the style image) into second image (the content image).

Some of the hand picked results:

1. Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/gcerar/pytorch-neural-style-transfer
2. Enter directory cd pytorch-neural-style-transfer
3. Run conda env create -f ./environment.yml
4. Run conda activate style-transfer

It is recommended to use GPU to accelerate the style transfer process.

python style_transfer.py --input <TargetImgPath> --style <StyleImgPath>

Optional parameters:

• --help or -h print help with all available parameters
• --epochs <number> (default: 7000)
• --seed <number> (default: 1)
• --no-cuda disables CUDA acceleration and use CPU instead
• --optimizer <adam|adamw|lbfgs|sgd> (default: adam)
• --init <input|noise> decide on what is init of output image (default: input)

Helpful articles with code and code repositories while writing my implementation:

• Gregor Koehler et al. gkoehler/pytorch-neural-style-transfer (best resource in my opinion)
• Ritul's Medium article (good resource)
• Pragati Baheti blog visually present style extraction
• Aleksa Gordić (gordicaleksa/pytorch-neural-style-transfer)
• ProGamerGov/neural-style-pt
• Katherine Crowson (rowsonkb/style-transfer-pytorch)
