Abstract
Techniques are disclosed herein for applying an artistic style extracted from one or more source images, e.g., paintings, to one or more target images. The extracted artistic style may then be stored as a plurality of layers in a neural network. In some embodiments, two or more stylized target images may be combined and stored as a stylized video sequence. The artistic style may be applied to the target images in the stylized video sequence using various optimization methods and/or pixel- and feature-based regularization techniques in a way that prevents excessive content pixel fluctuations between images and preserves smoothness in the assembled stylized video sequence. In other embodiments, a user may be able to semantically annotate locations of undesired artifacts in a target image, as well as portion(s) of a source image from which a style may be extracted and used to replace the undesired artifacts in the target image.
