We introduce a novel image-to-painting method that facilitates the creation of large-scale, high-fidelity paintings with human-like quality and stylistic variation. To process large images and gain control over the painting process, we…
Have you ever thought that you can be an intelligent painter? This means that you can paint a picture with a few expected objects in mind, or with a desirable scene. This is different from normal inpainting approaches for which the location…
Recent advances in deep generative models have shown promising potential in image inpanting, which refers to the task of predicting missing pixel values of an incomplete image using the known context. However, existing methods can be slow…
Inpainting-based codecs store sparse, quantised pixel data directly and decode by interpolating the discarded image parts. This interpolation can be used simultaneously for efficient coding by predicting pixel data to be stored. Such joint…
