Enhanced image processing techniques for deep neural networks

Abstract

Artistic styles extracted from source images may be applied to target images to generate stylized images and/or video sequences. The extracted artistic styles may be stored as a plurality of layers in one or more neural networks, which neural networks may be further optimized, e.g., via the fusion of various elements of the networks' architectures. The artistic style may be applied to the target images and/or video sequences using various optimization methods, such as the use of a first version of the neural network by a first processing device at a first resolution to generate one or more sets of parameters (e.g., scaling and/or biasing parameters), which parameters may then be mapped for use by a second version of the neural network by a second processing device at a second resolution. Analogous multi-processing device and/or multi-network solutions may also be applied to other complex image processing tasks for increased efficiency.
