"IGAN" which generates images automatically by simply drawing a simple line is great

"IGAN(Interactive Image Generation via Generative Adversal Networks) "is an interactive image generation interface. Automatically generate images that look like real photographs with extremely simple operation, images generated by "how to draw lines" and "what color lines are drawn" also change It is becoming amazing to do.

The figure below shows the outline of what iGAN can do.


Although it is hard to imagine this, it is a movie that shows how to actually generate images automatically. "Interactive Image Generation" part starting from 2 minutes and 24 seconds of the movie is what I can do with iGAN.

Generative Visual Manipulation on the Natural Image Manifold - YouTube


The box on the left side of the screen is an input and image creation box.


The box on the right side shows multiple choices.


First, choose a color ......


Pull a line to the left of the screen.


If you draw a line in the right direction, a grassy image is gradually generated.



It is possible to select a favorite generated image candidate from the box on the right, although a grassy wind image was generated by pulling only one green line.



Furthermore, click "Sketching" at the bottom of the screen ... ...


Draw a line on the screen again.


When drawing a line to draw a mountain on the grassy field, a mountain appeared in the automatically generated image.


In addition, draw a blue line in the sky ... ...


By drawing a white line at the top of the mountain, you can deform the automatically generated image freely and freely change the color.


IGAN image generation is based on deep learning related technologies such as DCGAN and GAN. It is said that iGAN is useful for understanding interactive visual debugging tools and visualization of data generation using deep learning.
