TL;DR
This paper introduces CAGAN, a novel GAN-based method for image analogy tasks that can generate realistic images with swapped fashion articles without requiring explicit segmentation labels.
Contribution
The paper presents the end-to-end trainable CAGAN architecture that learns segmentation masks implicitly and demonstrates its effectiveness in swapping fashion articles on images.
Findings
Produces plausible segmentation masks
Generates convincing swapped fashion images
Operates without supervised segmentation labels
Abstract
We present a novel method to solve image analogy problems : it allows to learn the relation between paired images present in training data, and then generalize and generate images that correspond to the relation, but were never seen in the training set. Therefore, we call the method Conditional Analogy Generative Adversarial Network (CAGAN), as it is based on adversarial training and employs deep convolutional neural networks. An especially interesting application of that technique is automatic swapping of clothing on fashion model photos. Our work has the following contributions. First, the definition of the end-to-end trainable CAGAN architecture, which implicitly learns segmentation masks without expensive supervised labeling data. Second, experimental results show plausible segmentation masks and often convincing swapped images, given the target article. Finally, we discuss the next…
