• Title: Line Search-Based Feature Transformation for Fast, Stable, and Tunable Content-Style Control in Photorealistic Style Transfer
• Authors: Tai-Yin Chiu, Danna Gurari
• Abstract summary: Photorealistic style transfer is the task of synthesizing a realistic-looking image when adapting the content from one image to appear in the style of another image. Modern models embed a transformation that fuses features describing the content image and style image and then decodes the resulting feature into a stylized image. We introduce a general-purpose transformation that enables controlling the balance between how much content is preserved and the strength of the infused style.

• Abstract: Photorealistic style transfer is the task of synthesizing a realistic-looking image when adapting the content from one image to appear in the style of another image. Modern models commonly embed a transformation that fuses features describing the content image and style image and then decodes the resulting feature into a stylized image. We introduce a general-purpose transformation that enables controlling the balance between how much content is preserved and the strength of the infused style. We offer the first experiments that demonstrate the performance of existing transformations across different style transfer models and demonstrate how our transformation performs better in its ability to simultaneously run fast, produce consistently reasonable results, and control the balance between content and style in different models. To support reproducing our method and models, we share the code at https://github.com/chiutaiyin/LS-FT.

• Puff-Net: Efficient Style Transfer with Pure Content and Style Feature Fusion Network [32.12413686394824]
  Style transfer aims to render an image with the artistic features of a style image, while maintaining the original structure. It is difficult for CNN-based methods to handle global information and long-range dependencies between input images. We propose a novel network termed Puff-Net, i.e., pure content and style feature fusion network.

  In this paper, we devise a novel Transformer model termed as emphMaster specifically for style transfer. In the proposed model, different Transformer layers share a common group of parameters, which (1) reduces the total number of parameters, (2) leads to more robust training convergence, and (3) is readily to control the degree of stylization. Experiments demonstrate the superiority of Master under both zero-shot and few-shot style transfer settings.

  Unified Contrastive Arbitrary Style Transfer (UCAST) is a novel style representation learning and transfer framework. We present an adaptive contrastive learning scheme for style transfer by introducing an input-dependent temperature. Our framework consists of three key components, i.e., a parallel contrastive learning scheme for style representation and style transfer, a domain enhancement module for effective learning of style distribution, and a generative network for style transfer.

• StyTr^2: Unbiased Image Style Transfer with Transformers [59.34108877969477]
  The goal of image style transfer is to render an image with artistic features guided by a style reference while maintaining the original content. Traditional neural style transfer methods are usually biased and content leak can be observed by running several times of the style transfer process with the same reference image. We propose a transformer-based approach, namely StyTr2, to address this critical issue.
