• Abstract: In recent years, arbitrary image style transfer has attracted more and more attention. Given a pair of content and style images, a stylized one is hoped that retains the content from the former while catching style patterns from the latter. However, it is difficult to simultaneously keep well the trade-off between the content details and the style features. To stylize the image with sufficient style patterns, the content details may be damaged and sometimes the objects of images can not be distinguished clearly. For this reason, we present a new transformer-based method named STT for image style transfer and an edge loss which can enhance the content details apparently to avoid generating blurred results for excessive rendering on style features. Qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate that STT achieves comparable performance to state-of-the-art image style transfer methods while alleviating the content leak problem.

  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.

• Improving the Latent Space of Image Style Transfer [24.37383949267162]
  In some cases, the feature statistics from the pre-trained encoder may not be consistent with the visual style we perceived. In such an inappropriate latent space, the objective function of the existing methods will be optimized in the wrong direction. We propose two contrastive training schemes to get a refined encoder that is more suitable for this task.

  We introduce a new task -- language-driven image style transfer (textttLDIST) -- to manipulate the style of a content image, guided by a text. The discriminator considers the correlation between language and patches of style images or transferred results to jointly embed style instructions. Experiments show that our CLVA is effective and achieves superb transferred results on textttLDIST.

• 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.
