TLDR
In this article, adaptive instance normalization (AdaIN) is proposed to align the mean and variance of the content features with those of the style features, which enables arbitrary style transfer in real-time.Abstract:
Gatys et al. recently introduced a neural algorithm that renders a content image in the style of another image, achieving so-called style transfer. However, their framework requires a slow iterative optimization process, which limits its practical application. Fast approximations with feed-forward neural networks have been proposed to speed up neural style transfer. Unfortunately, the speed improvement comes at a cost: the network is usually tied to a fixed set of styles and cannot adapt to arbitrary new styles. In this paper, we present a simple yet effective approach that for the first time enables arbitrary style transfer in real-time. At the heart of our method is a novel adaptive instance normalization (AdaIN) layer that aligns the mean and variance of the content features with those of the style features. Our method achieves speed comparable to the fastest existing approach, without the restriction to a pre-defined set of styles. In addition, our approach allows flexible user controls such as content-style trade-off, style interpolation, color & spatial controls, all using a single feed-forward neural network.read more

Point Cloud Deformation for Single Image 3d Reconstruction
TL;DR: This paper proposes an approach to reconstruct a precise and dense 3d point cloud from a single image that does not require overhead construction, and is efficient and scalable because the number of trainable parameters is independent of the point cloud size.

Preparing for the Worst: Making Networks Less Brittle with Adversarial Batch Normalization
TL;DR: This work adapts adversarial training by adversarially perturbing feature statistics, rather than image pixels, to produce models that are robust to domain shift, and significantly improves the performance of ResNet-50 on ImageNet-C, Stylized-ImageNet, and Image net-Instagram over standard training practices.

TL;DR: A new framework for estimating generative models via an adversarial process, in which two models are simultaneously train: a generative model G that captures the data distribution and a discriminative model D that estimates the probability that a sample came from the training data rather than G.
