• Abstract: Multimodal and multi-domain stylization are two important problems in the field of image style transfer. Currently, there are few methods that can perform both multimodal and multi-domain stylization simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a unified framework for multimodal and multi-domain style transfer with the support of both exemplar-based reference and randomly sampled guidance. The key component of our method is a novel style distribution alignment module that eliminates the explicit distribution gaps between various style domains and reduces the risk of mode collapse. The multimodal diversity is ensured by either guidance from multiple images or random style code, while the multi-domain controllability is directly achieved by using a domain label. We validate our proposed framework on painting style transfer with a variety of different artistic styles and genres. Qualitative and quantitative comparisons with state-of-the-art methods demonstrate that our method can generate high-quality results of multi-domain styles and multimodal instances with reference style guidance or random sampled style.

  Unsupervised image-to-image translation aims to learn the mapping between two visual domains with unpaired samples.

Based on the correlation between the latent features and the high-level domain-invariant tasks, the proposed framework demonstrates superior performance.

  We introduce a simple and versatile framework for image-to-image translation. We provide a carefully designed two-stream generative model with newly proposed feature transformations. This allows multi-scale semantic structure information and style representation to be effectively captured and fused by the network. A systematic study compares the proposed method with several state-of-the-art task-specific baselines, verifying its effectiveness in both perceptual quality and quantitative evaluations.

• Manifold Alignment for Semantically Aligned Style Transfer [61.1274057338588]
  We make a new assumption that image features from the same semantic region form a manifold and an image with multiple semantic regions follows a multi-manifold distribution. Based on this assumption, the style transfer problem is formulated as aligning two multi-manifold distributions. The proposed framework allows semantically similar regions between the output and the style image share similar style patterns.
