• Authors: Shradha Agrawal, Shankar Venkitachalam, Dhanya Raghu, Deepak Pai
• Abstract summary: We propose a simple and novel conditioning strategy which allows generation of images conditioned on given semantic attributes. Our approach is based on modifying latent vectors, using directional vectors of relevant semantic attributes in latent space. We show the applicability of our proposed approach, named Directional GAN, on multiple public datasets, with an average accuracy of 86.4%.

• Abstract: Image content is a predominant factor in marketing campaigns, websites and banners. Today, marketers and designers spend considerable time and money in generating such professional quality content. We take a step towards simplifying this process using Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). We propose a simple and novel conditioning strategy which allows generation of images conditioned on given semantic attributes using a generator trained for an unconditional image generation task. Our approach is based on modifying latent vectors, using directional vectors of relevant semantic attributes in latent space. Our method is designed to work with both discrete (binary and multi-class) and continuous image attributes. We show the applicability of our proposed approach, named Directional GAN, on multiple public datasets, with an average accuracy of 86.4% across different attributes.

  We propose a Hierarchical Semantic Regularizer (HSR) which aligns the hierarchical representations learnt by the generator to corresponding powerful features learnt by pretrained networks on large amounts of data. HSR is shown to not only improve generator representations but also the linearity and smoothness of the latent style spaces, leading to the generation of more natural-looking style-edited images.

  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 the first approach for Multi-Source Domain Adaptation (MSDA) based on Generative Adversarial Networks. Our method is inspired by the observation that the appearance of a given image depends on three factors: the domain, the style and the content. We test our approach using common MSDA benchmarks, showing that it outperforms state-of-the-art methods.
