• Title: Modeling Fashion Influence from Photos
• Authors: Ziad Al-Halah, Kristen Grauman
• Abstract summary: We explore fashion influence along two channels: geolocation and fashion brands. We leverage public large-scale datasets of 7.7M Instagram photos from 44 major world cities. Our results indicate the advantage of grounding visual style evolution both spatially and temporally.

• Abstract: The evolution of clothing styles and their migration across the world is intriguing, yet difficult to describe quantitatively. We propose to discover and quantify fashion influences from catalog and social media photos. We explore fashion influence along two channels: geolocation and fashion brands. We introduce an approach that detects which of these entities influence which other entities in terms of propagating their styles. We then leverage the discovered influence patterns to inform a novel forecasting model that predicts the future popularity of any given style within any given city or brand. To demonstrate our idea, we leverage public large-scale datasets of 7.7M Instagram photos from 44 major world cities (where styles are worn with variable frequency) as well as 41K Amazon product photos (where styles are purchased with variable frequency). Our model learns directly from the image data how styles move between locations and how certain brands affect each other's designs in a predictable way. The discovered influence relationships reveal how both cities and brands exert and receive fashion influence for an array of visual styles inferred from the images. Furthermore, the proposed forecasting model achieves state-of-the-art results for challenging style forecasting tasks. Our results indicate the advantage of grounding visual style evolution both spatially and temporally, and for the first time, they quantify the propagation of inter-brand and inter-city influences.

  Artistic style transfer aims to create new artistic images by rendering a given photograph with the target artistic style. Existing methods learn styles simply based on global statistics or local patches, lacking careful consideration of the drawing process in practice. We propose a Two-Stage Statistics-Aware Transformation (TSSAT) module, which first builds the global style foundation by aligning the global statistics of content and style features. To further enhance both content and style representations, we introduce two novel losses: an attention-based content loss and a patch-based style loss.

  Contrastive Arbitrary Style Transfer (CAST) is a new style representation learning and style transfer method via contrastive learning. Our framework consists of three key components, i.e., a multi-layer style projector for style code encoding, a domain enhancement module for effective learning of style distribution, and a generative network for image style transfer.

  We propose a novel framework that jointly leverages the image vision, post text, as well as fashion attribute modality to determine the sentiment category. Since there is no existing dataset suitable for this task, we prepare a large-scale sentiment analysis dataset of over 12k fashion related social media posts.

  This work focuses on investigating fine-grained fashion element trends for specific user groups. We first contribute a large-scale fashion trend dataset (FIT) collected from Instagram with extracted time series fashion element records and user information. We propose a Knowledge EnhancedRecurrent Network model (KERN) which takes advantage of the capability of deep recurrent neural networks in modeling time-series data.

• Learning Diverse Fashion Collocation by Neural Graph Filtering [78.9188246136867]
  We propose a novel fashion collocation framework, Neural Graph Filtering, that models a flexible set of fashion items via a graph neural network. By applying symmetric operations on the edge vectors, this framework allows varying numbers of inputs/outputs and is invariant to their ordering. We evaluate the proposed approach on three popular benchmarks, the Polyvore dataset, the Polyvore-D dataset, and our reorganized Amazon Fashion dataset.
