style transfer for headshot portraits
Bookmarked 598 weeks ago
recommended resolution: 1080pto appear in siggraph 2014abstract:headshot portraits are a popular subject in photography but to achieve a compelling visual style requires advanced skills that a casual photographer will not have further algorithms that automate or assist the stylization of generic photographs do not perform well on headshots due to the feature-specific local retouching that a professional photographer typically applies to generate such portraitswe introduce a technique to transfer the style of an example headshot photo onto a new one this can allow one to easily reproduce the look of renowned artists at the core of our approach is a new multiscale technique to robustly transfer the local statistics of an example portrait onto a new one this technique matches properties such as the local contrast and the overall lighting direction while being tolerant to the unavoidable differences between the faces of two different people additionally because artists sometimes produce entire headshot collections in a common style we show how to automatically find a good example to use as a reference for a given portrait enabling style transfer without the user having to search for a suitable example for each input we demonstrate our approach on data taken in a controlled environment as well as on a large set of photos downloaded from the internet we show that we can successfully handle styles by a variety of different artists
