• Title: COCO-FUNIT: Few-Shot Unsupervised Image Translation with a Content Conditioned Style Encoder
• Authors: Kuniaki Saito, Kate Saenko, Ming-Yu Liu
• Abstract summary: Unsupervised image-to-image translation aims to learn a mapping of an image in a given domain to an analogous image in a different domain. We propose a new few-shot image translation model, COCO-FUNIT, which computes the style embedding of the example images conditioned on the input image. Our model shows effectiveness in addressing the content loss problem.

• Abstract: Unsupervised image-to-image translation intends to learn a mapping of an image in a given domain to an analogous image in a different domain, without explicit supervision of the mapping. Few-shot unsupervised image-to-image translation further attempts to generalize the model to an unseen domain by leveraging example images of the unseen domain provided at inference time. While remarkably successful, existing few-shot image-to-image translation models find it difficult to preserve the structure of the input image while emulating the appearance of the unseen domain, which we refer to as the content loss problem. This is particularly severe when the poses of the objects in the input and example images are very different. To address the issue, we propose a new few-shot image translation model, COCO-FUNIT, which computes the style embedding of the example images conditioned on the input image and a new module called the constant style bias. Through extensive experimental validations with comparison to the state-of-the-art, our model shows effectiveness in addressing the content loss problem.

  Current image variation techniques involve adapting a text-to-image model to reconstruct an input image conditioned on the same image. We show that a diffusion model trained to reconstruct an input image from frozen embeddings, can reconstruct the image with minor variations. We propose a new pretraining strategy to generate image variations using a large collection of image pairs.

  Unsupervised image-to-image translation aims to learn the mapping between two visual domains with unpaired samples. We propose to separate the content code and style code simultaneously in a unified framework. Based on the correlation between the latent features and the high-level domain-invariant tasks, the proposed framework demonstrates superior performance.

  This work proposes an implicit style function (ISF) to straightforwardly achieve multi-modal and multi-domain image-to-image translation. Our results in human face and animal manipulations show significantly improved results over the baselines. Our model enables cost-effective multi-modal unsupervised image-to-image translations at high resolution using pre-trained unconditional GANs.

  We introduce BalaGAN, specifically designed to tackle the domain imbalance problem. We leverage the latent modalities of the richer domain to turn the image-to-image translation problem into a balanced, multi-class, and conditional translation problem. We show that BalaGAN outperforms strong baselines of both unconditioned and style-transfer-based image-to-image translation methods.

  In image-to-image translation, each patch in the output should reflect the content of the corresponding patch in the input, independent of domain. We propose a framework based on contrastive learning to maximize mutual information between the two. We demonstrate that our framework enables one-sided translation in the unpaired image-to-image translation setting, while improving quality and reducing training time.

We propose a new generator network to address this issue and show that the resulting network strikes a better balance between style and content.
