• Abstract summary: We propose in-domain GAN inversion, which consists of a domain-guided domain-regularized and a encoder to regularize the inverted code in the native latent space of the pre-trained GAN model. We make comprehensive analyses on the effects of the encoder structure, the starting inversion point, as well as the inversion parameter space, and observe the trade-off between the reconstruction quality and the editing property.

• Abstract: Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have significantly advanced image synthesis through mapping randomly sampled latent codes to high-fidelity synthesized images. However, applying well-trained GANs to real image editing remains challenging. A common solution is to find an approximate latent code that can adequately recover the input image to edit, which is also known as GAN inversion. To invert a GAN model, prior works typically focus on reconstructing the target image at the pixel level, yet few studies are conducted on whether the inverted result can well support manipulation at the semantic level. This work fills in this gap by proposing in-domain GAN inversion, which consists of a domain-guided encoder and a domain-regularized optimizer, to regularize the inverted code in the native latent space of the pre-trained GAN model. In this way, we manage to sufficiently reuse the knowledge learned by GANs for image reconstruction, facilitating a wide range of editing applications without any retraining. We further make comprehensive analyses on the effects of the encoder structure, the starting inversion point, as well as the inversion parameter space, and observe the trade-off between the reconstruction quality and the editing property. Such a trade-off sheds light on how a GAN model represents an image with various semantics encoded in the learned latent distribution.

  In this paper, we propose a novel GAN inversion model for image inpainting, dubbed InvertFill. Within the encoder, the pre-modulation network leverages multi-scale structures to encode more discriminative semantics into style vectors. To reconstruct faithful and photorealistic images, a simple yet effective Soft-update Mean Latent module is designed to capture more diverse in-domain patterns that synthesize high-fidelity textures for large corruptions.

• Cycle Encoding of a StyleGAN Encoder for Improved Reconstruction and Editability [76.6724135757723]
  GAN inversion aims to invert an input image into the latent space of a pre-trained GAN. Despite the recent advances in GAN inversion, there remain challenges to mitigate the tradeoff between distortion and editability. We propose a two-step approach that first inverts the input image into a latent code, called pivot code, and then alters the generator so that the input image can be accurately mapped into the pivot code.

  We propose a novel GAN prior based editing framework to tackle the out-of-domain inversion problem with a composition-decomposition paradigm. With the aid of the generated Diff-CAM mask, a coarse reconstruction can intuitively be composited by the paired original and edited images. In the decomposition phase, we further present a GAN prior based deghosting network for separating the final fine edited image from the coarse reconstruction.

We propose a distortion consultation approach that employs a distortion map as a reference for high-fidelity reconstruction.

  Various semantics emerge in the latent space of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) when being trained to generate images.

We propose a force-in-domain GAN based on the in-domain GAN, which utilizes a discriminator to force the inverted code within the latent space.

• In-Domain GAN Inversion for Real Image Editing [56.924323432048304]
  A common practice of feeding a real image to a trained GAN generator is to invert it back to a latent code. Existing inversion methods typically focus on reconstructing the target image by pixel values yet fail to land the inverted code in the semantic domain of the original latent space. We propose an in-domain GAN inversion approach, which faithfully reconstructs the input image and ensures the inverted code to be semantically meaningful for editing.
