Sample Page Title


How would your summer season vacation’s images look had Edvard Munch painted them? (Maybe it’s higher to not know).
Let’s take a extra comforting instance: How would a pleasant, summarly river panorama look if painted by Katsushika Hokusai?

Fashion switch on photos will not be new, however received a lift when Gatys, Ecker, and Bethge(Gatys, Ecker, and Bethge 2015) confirmed the way to efficiently do it with deep studying.
The principle concept is simple: Create a hybrid that could be a tradeoff between the content material picture we wish to manipulate, and a fashion picture we wish to imitate, by optimizing for maximal resemblance to each on the identical time.

Should you’ve learn the chapter on neural fashion switch from Deep Studying with R, it’s possible you’ll acknowledge a number of the code snippets that observe.
Nonetheless, there is a crucial distinction: This put up makes use of TensorFlow Keen Execution, permitting for an crucial approach of coding that makes it straightforward to map ideas to code.
Identical to earlier posts on keen execution on this weblog, it is a port of a Google Colaboratory pocket book that performs the identical job in Python.

As typical, please ensure you have the required bundle variations put in. And no want to repeat the snippets – you’ll discover the entire code among the many Keras examples.

Stipulations

The code on this put up will depend on the latest variations of a number of of the TensorFlow R packages. You possibly can set up these packages as follows:

c(128, 128, 3)

content_path <- "isar.jpg"

content_image <-  image_load(content_path, target_size = img_shape[1:2])
content_image %>% 
  image_to_array() %>%
  `/`(., 255) %>%
  as.raster() %>%
  plot()

And right here’s the fashion mannequin, Hokusai’s The Nice Wave off Kanagawa, which you’ll be able to obtain from Wikimedia Commons:

style_path <- "The_Great_Wave_off_Kanagawa.jpg"

style_image <-  image_load(content_path, target_size = img_shape[1:2])
style_image %>% 
  image_to_array() %>%
  `/`(., 255) %>%
  as.raster() %>%
  plot()

We create a wrapper that hundreds and preprocesses the enter photos for us.
As we will likely be working with VGG19, a community that has been skilled on ImageNet, we have to remodel our enter photos in the identical approach that was used coaching it. Later, we’ll apply the inverse transformation to our mixture picture earlier than displaying it.

load_and_preprocess_image <- operate(path) {
  img <- image_load(path, target_size = img_shape[1:2]) %>%
    image_to_array() %>%
    k_expand_dims(axis = 1) %>%
    imagenet_preprocess_input()
}

deprocess_image <- operate(x) {
  x <- x[1, , ,]
  # Take away zero-center by imply pixel
  x[, , 1] <- x[, , 1] + 103.939
  x[, , 2] <- x[, , 2] + 116.779
  x[, , 3] <- x[, , 3] + 123.68
  # 'BGR'->'RGB'
  x <- x[, , c(3, 2, 1)]
  x[x > 255] <- 255
  x[x < 0] <- 0
  x[] <- as.integer(x) / 255
  x
}

Setting the scene

We’re going to use a neural community, however we received’t be coaching it. Neural fashion switch is a bit unusual in that we don’t optimize the community’s weights, however again propagate the loss to the enter layer (the picture), with a view to transfer it within the desired route.

We will likely be enthusiastic about two sorts of outputs from the community, akin to our two targets.
Firstly, we wish to hold the mix picture just like the content material picture, on a excessive degree. In a convnet, higher layers map to extra holistic ideas, so we’re choosing a layer excessive up within the graph to check outputs from the supply and the mix.

Secondly, the generated picture ought to “seem like” the fashion picture. Fashion corresponds to decrease degree options like texture, shapes, strokes… So to check the mix towards the fashion instance, we select a set of decrease degree conv blocks for comparability and mixture the outcomes.

content_layers <- c("block5_conv2")
style_layers <- c("block1_conv1",
                 "block2_conv1",
                 "block3_conv1",
                 "block4_conv1",
                 "block5_conv1")

num_content_layers <- size(content_layers)
num_style_layers <- size(style_layers)

get_model <- operate() {
  vgg <- application_vgg19(include_top = FALSE, weights = "imagenet")
  vgg$trainable <- FALSE
  style_outputs <- map(style_layers, operate(layer) vgg$get_layer(layer)$output)
  content_outputs <- map(content_layers, operate(layer) vgg$get_layer(layer)$output)
  model_outputs <- c(style_outputs, content_outputs)
  keras_model(vgg$enter, model_outputs)
}

Losses

When optimizing the enter picture, we’ll contemplate three kinds of losses. Firstly, the content material loss: How totally different is the mix picture from the supply? Right here, we’re utilizing the sum of the squared errors for comparability.

content_loss <- operate(content_image, goal) {
  k_sum(k_square(goal - content_image))
}

Our second concern is having the types match as carefully as potential. Fashion is often operationalized because the Gram matrix of flattened characteristic maps in a layer. We thus assume that fashion is expounded to how maps in a layer correlate with different.

We subsequently compute the Gram matrices of the layers we’re enthusiastic about (outlined above), for the supply picture in addition to the optimization candidate, and examine them, once more utilizing the sum of squared errors.

gram_matrix <- operate(x) {
  options <- k_batch_flatten(k_permute_dimensions(x, c(3, 1, 2)))
  gram <- k_dot(options, k_transpose(options))
  gram
}

style_loss <- operate(gram_target, mixture) {
  gram_comb <- gram_matrix(mixture)
  k_sum(k_square(gram_target - gram_comb)) /
    (4 * (img_shape[3] ^ 2) * (img_shape[1] * img_shape[2]) ^ 2)
}

Thirdly, we don’t need the mix picture to look overly pixelated, thus we’re including in a regularization part, the whole variation within the picture:

total_variation_loss <- operate(picture) {
  y_ij  <- picture[1:(img_shape[1] - 1L), 1:(img_shape[2] - 1L),]
  y_i1j <- picture[2:(img_shape[1]), 1:(img_shape[2] - 1L),]
  y_ij1 <- picture[1:(img_shape[1] - 1L), 2:(img_shape[2]),]
  a <- k_square(y_ij - y_i1j)
  b <- k_square(y_ij - y_ij1)
  k_sum(k_pow(a + b, 1.25))
}

The tough factor is the way to mix these losses. We’ve reached acceptable outcomes with the next weightings, however be happy to mess around as you see match:

content_weight <- 100
style_weight <- 0.8
total_variation_weight <- 0.01

Get mannequin outputs for the content material and elegance photos

We’d like the mannequin’s output for the content material and elegance photos, however right here it suffices to do that simply as soon as.
We concatenate each photos alongside the batch dimension, go that enter to the mannequin, and get again an inventory of outputs, the place each component of the checklist is a 4-d tensor. For the fashion picture, we’re within the fashion outputs at batch place 1, whereas for the content material picture, we’d like the content material output at batch place 2.

Within the beneath feedback, please observe that the sizes of dimensions 2 and three will differ if you happen to’re loading photos at a special measurement.

get_feature_representations <-
  operate(mannequin, content_path, style_path) {
    
    # dim == (1, 128, 128, 3)
    style_image <-
      load_and_process_image(style_path) %>% k_cast("float32")
    # dim == (1, 128, 128, 3)
    content_image <-
      load_and_process_image(content_path) %>% k_cast("float32")
    # dim == (2, 128, 128, 3)
    stack_images <- k_concatenate(checklist(style_image, content_image), axis = 1)
    
    # size(model_outputs) == 6
    # dim(model_outputs[[1]]) = (2, 128, 128, 64)
    # dim(model_outputs[[6]]) = (2, 8, 8, 512)
    model_outputs <- mannequin(stack_images)
    
    style_features <- 
      model_outputs[1:num_style_layers] %>%
      map(operate(batch) batch[1, , , ])
    content_features <- 
      model_outputs[(num_style_layers + 1):(num_style_layers + num_content_layers)] %>%
      map(operate(batch) batch[2, , , ])
    
    checklist(style_features, content_features)
  }

Computing the losses

On each iteration, we have to go the mix picture by means of the mannequin, receive the fashion and content material outputs, and compute the losses. Once more, the code is extensively commented with tensor sizes for simple verification, however please needless to say the precise numbers presuppose you’re working with 128×128 photos.

compute_loss <-
  operate(mannequin, loss_weights, init_image, gram_style_features, content_features) {
    
    c(style_weight, content_weight) %<-% loss_weights
    model_outputs <- mannequin(init_image)
    style_output_features <- model_outputs[1:num_style_layers]
    content_output_features <-
      model_outputs[(num_style_layers + 1):(num_style_layers + num_content_layers)]
    
    # fashion loss
    weight_per_style_layer <- 1 / num_style_layers
    style_score <- 0
    # dim(style_zip[[5]][[1]]) == (512, 512)
    style_zip <- transpose(checklist(gram_style_features, style_output_features))
    for (l in 1:size(style_zip)) {
      # for l == 1:
      # dim(target_style) == (64, 64)
      # dim(comb_style) == (1, 128, 128, 64)
      c(target_style, comb_style) %<-% style_zip[[l]]
      style_score <- style_score + weight_per_style_layer * 
        style_loss(target_style, comb_style[1, , , ])
    }
    
    # content material loss
    weight_per_content_layer <- 1 / num_content_layers
    content_score <- 0
    content_zip <- transpose(checklist(content_features, content_output_features))
    for (l in 1:size(content_zip)) {
      # dim(comb_content) ==  (1, 8, 8, 512)
      # dim(target_content) == (8, 8, 512)
      c(target_content, comb_content) %<-% content_zip[[l]]
      content_score <- content_score + weight_per_content_layer *
        content_loss(comb_content[1, , , ], target_content)
    }
    
    # whole variation loss
    variation_loss <- total_variation_loss(init_image[1, , ,])
    
    style_score <- style_score * style_weight
    content_score <- content_score * content_weight
    variation_score <- variation_loss * total_variation_weight
    
    loss <- style_score + content_score + variation_score
    checklist(loss, style_score, content_score, variation_score)
  }

Computing the gradients

As quickly as now we have the losses, acquiring the gradients of the general loss with respect to the enter picture is only a matter of calling tape$gradient on the GradientTape. Be aware that the nested name to compute_loss, and thus the decision of the mannequin on our mixture picture, occurs contained in the GradientTape context.

compute_grads <- 
  operate(mannequin, loss_weights, init_image, gram_style_features, content_features) {
    with(tf$GradientTape() %as% tape, {
      scores <-
        compute_loss(mannequin,
                     loss_weights,
                     init_image,
                     gram_style_features,
                     content_features)
    })
    total_loss <- scores[[1]]
    checklist(tape$gradient(total_loss, init_image), scores)
  }

Coaching section

Now it’s time to coach! Whereas the pure continuation of this sentence would have been “… the mannequin,” the mannequin we’re coaching right here will not be VGG19 (that one we’re simply utilizing as a instrument), however a minimal setup of simply:

  • a Variable that holds our to-be-optimized picture
  • the loss features we outlined above
  • an optimizer that can apply the calculated gradients to the picture variable (tf$prepare$AdamOptimizer)

Beneath, we get the fashion options (of the fashion picture) and the content material characteristic (of the content material picture) simply as soon as, then iterate over the optimization course of, saving the output each 100 iterations.

In distinction to the unique article and the Deep Studying with R ebook, however following the Google pocket book as an alternative, we’re not utilizing L-BFGS for optimization, however Adam, as our purpose right here is to offer a concise introduction to keen execution.
Nonetheless, you can plug in one other optimization technique if you happen to wished, changing
optimizer$apply_gradients(checklist(tuple(grads, init_image)))
by an algorithm of your alternative (and naturally, assigning the results of the optimization to the Variable holding the picture).

run_style_transfer <- operate(content_path, style_path) {
  mannequin <- get_model()
  stroll(mannequin$layers, operate(layer) layer$trainable = FALSE)
  
  c(style_features, content_features) %<-% 
    get_feature_representations(mannequin, content_path, style_path)
  # dim(gram_style_features[[1]]) == (64, 64)
  gram_style_features <- map(style_features, operate(characteristic) gram_matrix(characteristic))
  
  init_image <- load_and_process_image(content_path)
  init_image <- tf$contrib$keen$Variable(init_image, dtype = "float32")
  
  optimizer <- tf$prepare$AdamOptimizer(learning_rate = 1,
                                      beta1 = 0.99,
                                      epsilon = 1e-1)
  
  c(best_loss, best_image) %<-% checklist(Inf, NULL)
  loss_weights <- checklist(style_weight, content_weight)
  
  start_time <- Sys.time()
  global_start <- Sys.time()
  
  norm_means <- c(103.939, 116.779, 123.68)
  min_vals <- -norm_means
  max_vals <- 255 - norm_means
  
  for (i in seq_len(num_iterations)) {
    # dim(grads) == (1, 128, 128, 3)
    c(grads, all_losses) %<-% compute_grads(mannequin,
                                            loss_weights,
                                            init_image,
                                            gram_style_features,
                                            content_features)
    c(loss, style_score, content_score, variation_score) %<-% all_losses
    optimizer$apply_gradients(checklist(tuple(grads, init_image)))
    clipped <- tf$clip_by_value(init_image, min_vals, max_vals)
    init_image$assign(clipped)
    
    end_time <- Sys.time()
    
    if (k_cast_to_floatx(loss) < best_loss) {
      best_loss <- k_cast_to_floatx(loss)
      best_image <- init_image
    }
    
    if (i %% 50 == 0) {
      glue("Iteration: {i}") %>% print()
      glue(
        "Complete loss: {k_cast_to_floatx(loss)},
        fashion loss: {k_cast_to_floatx(style_score)},
        content material loss: {k_cast_to_floatx(content_score)},
        whole variation loss: {k_cast_to_floatx(variation_score)},
        time for 1 iteration: {(Sys.time() - start_time) %>% spherical(2)}"
      ) %>% print()
      
      if (i %% 100 == 0) {
        png(paste0("style_epoch_", i, ".png"))
        plot_image <- best_image$numpy()
        plot_image <- deprocess_image(plot_image)
        plot(as.raster(plot_image), most important = glue("Iteration {i}"))
        dev.off()
      }
    }
  }
  
  glue("Complete time: {Sys.time() - global_start} seconds") %>% print()
  checklist(best_image, best_loss)
}

Able to run

Now, we’re prepared to start out the method:

c(best_image, best_loss) %<-% run_style_transfer(content_path, style_path)

In our case, outcomes didn’t change a lot after ~ iteration 1000, and that is how our river panorama was wanting:

… undoubtedly extra inviting than had it been painted by Edvard Munch!

Conclusion

With neural fashion switch, some fiddling round could also be wanted till you get the end result you need. However as our instance exhibits, this doesn’t imply the code needs to be sophisticated. Moreover to being straightforward to understand, keen execution additionally enables you to add debugging output, and step by means of the code line-by-line to verify on tensor shapes.
Till subsequent time in our keen execution sequence!
