• Abstract: Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been successfully applied to transfer visual attributes in many domains, including that of human face images. This success is partly attributable to the facts that human faces have similar shapes and the positions of eyes, noses, and mouths are fixed among different people. Attribute transfer is more challenging when the source and target domain share different shapes. In this paper, we introduce a shape-aware GAN model that is able to preserve shape when transferring attributes, and propose its application to some real-world domains. Compared to other state-of-art GANs-based image-to-image translation models, the model we propose is able to generate more visually appealing results while maintaining the quality of results from transfer learning.

  We introduce PluGeN4Faces, a plugin to StyleGAN, which explicitly disentangles face attributes from a person's identity. Our experiments demonstrate that the modifications of face attributes performed by PluGeN4Faces are significantly less invasive on the remaining characteristics of the image than in the existing state-of-the-art models.

  We show how gradient-based attentions can be used as knowledge to be conveyed in a teacher-student paradigm for image-to-image translation tasks. It is also demonstrated how "pseudo"-attentions can also be employed during training when teacher and student networks are trained on different domains.

  We consider the novel task of learning disentangled representations of object shape and appearance across multiple domains. We learn a generative model that learns an intermediate distribution, which borrows a subset of properties from each domain. This challenge requires an accurate disentanglement of object shape, appearance, and background from each domain.

  Attribute image manipulation has been a very active topic since the introduction of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) We present a multimodal representation that handles all attributes, be it guided by random noise or images, while only using the underlying domain information of the target domain. Our method is capable of adding, removing or changing either fine-grained or coarse attributes by using an image as a reference or by exploring the style distribution space.

  We propose a 3D model-assisted domain-transferred face augmentation network (DotFAN) DotFAN can generate a series of variants of an input face based on the knowledge distilled from existing rich face datasets collected from other domains. Experiments show that DotFAN is beneficial for augmenting small face datasets to improve their within-class diversity.

  We aim at transforming an image with a fine-grained category to synthesize new images that preserve the identity of the input image. We adopt a model based on generative adversarial networks to disentangle the identity related and unrelated factors of an image. Experiments on the CompCars and Multi-PIE datasets demonstrate that our model preserves the identity of the generated images much better than the state-of-the-art image-to-image transformation models.
