TLDR
S spatially-adaptive normalization is proposed, a simple but effective layer for synthesizing photorealistic images given an input semantic layout that allows users to easily control the style and content of image synthesis results as well as create multi-modal results.
Abstract
We propose spatially-adaptive normalization, a simple but effective layer for synthesizing photorealistic images given an input semantic layout. Previous methods directly feed the semantic layout as input to the network, forcing the network to memorize the information throughout all the layers. Instead, we propose using the input layout for modulating the activations in normalization layers through a spatially-adaptive, learned affine transformation. Experiments on several challenging datasets demonstrate the superiority of our method compared to existing approaches, regarding both visual fidelity and alignment with input layouts. Finally, our model allows users to easily control the style and content of image synthesis results as well as create multi-modal results. Code is available upon publication.

BBDM: Image-to-image Translation with Brownian Bridge Diffusion Models

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a novel image-to-image translation method based on the Brownian Bridge Diffusion Model (BBDM), which models image to image translation as a stochastic Brownian bridge process and learns the translation between two domains directly through the bidirectional diffusion process rather than a conditional generation process.

Face2Faceρ: Real-Time High-Resolution One-Shot Face Reenactment

TL;DR: Li et al. as mentioned in this paper designed a new 3DMM-assisted warping-based face re-actment architecture which consists of two fast and efficient sub-networks, i.e., a u-shaped rendering network to reenact faces driven by head poses and facial motion fields, and a hierarchical coarse-to-fine motion network to predict facial motion field guided by different scales of landmark images.

Adam: A Method for Stochastic Optimization

TL;DR: This work introduces Adam, an algorithm for first-order gradient-based optimization of stochastic objective functions, based on adaptive estimates of lower-order moments, and provides a regret bound on the convergence rate that is comparable to the best known results under the online convex optimization framework.

ImageNet Classification with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

TL;DR: The state-of-the-art performance of CNNs was achieved by Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) as discussed by the authors, which consists of five convolutional layers, some of which are followed by max-pooling layers, and three fully-connected layers with a final 1000-way softmax.

Generative Adversarial Nets

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.
