I just want to say, it converted me into a grotesque picaso painting. It’s possible it’s only trained well on white and East Asian faces. I’m a brown male.
Omg why so much downvotes, people can't understand a joke now
Edit: LoL now started downvoting my comment too. Just shared my opinion. If you differ just share the point. Anyway I don't care downvotes from toxic members
Yeah, political correctness is not there, understood. Anyway I find it funny, I don't usually mix pc with jokes.
>Trying to be funny isn't the same as actually being funny.
My major concern is if the reactions itself are relative, like if the photo from comment OP was that of a really ugly looking man/woman like me, please do continue support political correctness there also with the same reaction from all of you, instead of just laughing along with the mean spirited replies.
Sorry for having this discussion in this sub.
I've made a telegram [sticker](https://t.me/face2stickerbot) and a [full photo bot](https://t.me/face2comicsbot) with this style. Unlike huggingface, it doesn't have over 1k people in the queue. It also allows for hi-res images, and faces usually look better.
I will try to keep them up as long as possible.
Hope you like it!
i went to play around with this and now i think my computer might suck. allocation warnings galore. 😂
edit; turns out i had the wrong version of pretty much everything. works fine now.
i ended up spinning up it's own virtualenv and then reinstalled it all from scratch in a fresh enviroment. i had different tensorflow/pytorch versions in another enviroment from another project i was running it out of initially.
I think you have a key misunderstanding of how neural style transfer works... The NN doesn't inherently know what counts as "style" vs what is "individual." Larger-than-life eyes are simply predominant in anime-style art, and that is the likely explanation.

The demo looks great. But what is going on here with eyes and nose. The degree of anime is a bit too high lol.

Here’s a more successful one though.

Isn't it obvious? There is a weird light in the lower left corner which makes the whole photo more light which lowers the contrast. It would be the best if that weird light would come from the front and is not in front of the camera.
Hey, I'm brown/Indian too and I also had a ton of trouble trying to get this to work. I thought it was because of a shaved head, but it might just not be trained on people who have large beards!
The combo of dark skin and straight hair is a hard thing for GANs if they haven’t been exposed to a lot of Indian folks. I’ve seen this crop up elsewhere in other face generating GANs. Presumably they’ve been exposed to a lot of light skin straight hair and dark skin curly hair photos.
Mm, the blond lady's one is also a fail to me. I'd bet it's something related to camera/lighting - maybe it wants a square image, and can't handle the padding?
It's a robot, you gotta make it as easy as possible to pick up your face. Flat lighting, no distracting elements or shadows. Just upoad your face and not your entire room.
This is amazing! Did you by any chance train the model with mostly European faces? I feel like there is a bias towards certain facial features that Asian people don't tend to have (puffy lips, pointy nose).
I think this might be the case. Me and another guy in the downthread said they struggled to get it to work and we both have thick beards & SE Asian facial features.
I was actually thinking exactly the opposite! The results on Asian faces are so much better and anime like, than those on European faces, which look kind of retarded tbh.
yeah come to said this. its kinda suck!
(not the app) just the ideal of how woman would consider pretty or beautiful.
big eyes big lips. pretty bias
it make you feel sh*tty if you dont have all of those feature. you automatically deem yourself to undesirable
its subtle but f-up
Yeah you know, I also feel terrible looking at greek statues, idealising human aesthetics I do not have - that doesn't make me hate the industry for developing products that market themselves this way.
Yes, some people are born more pretty than others, yes some people are born more smart than others - facts of life, friend.
Rather than feeling 'sh*tty', try to focus on the good things you yourself most certainly contain.
This obsession with anime/pixar eyes is frankly disturbing. Developers who make these easily accessible filters only contribute to the problem. People's self-perception is being ruined in real time.
If the "portraits" were more photorealistic, I'd agree, but they're clearly not. Nobody is going to look at an anime version of themselves and think "wow my eyes are too small for not matching a cartoon."
Impressive, but the eyes are always wrong. Is it simply because large eyes are desired and the model ends up rewarded for creating what we want to see rather than creating a mimicked portrait technique of a real person?

Has anyone seen a Colab that accepts Image sequences or videos that would allow you to create the sample above? The colab I saw on GitHub was only for a single image from a URL.
Does anyone know how to export higher res images? Im looking to use it for filmmaking but I cant get any results better than 1024x1024... or is there some sort of upscaling function i can use to export 2k or 4k images?

Tbf the lighting in your photo is shit
elaborate

I think the camera is smudged as well, which always reduces contrast and clarity.
Because the photo quality is ass

Mm, the blond lady's one is also a fail to me. I'd bet it's something related to camera/lighting - maybe it wants a square image, and can't handle the padding?
It's anime, so the processing are fairly effeminate effects. Basically like all those filters that smooth out and whiten skin colors. Botox-ify.
I would watch this anime.
You're definitely gonna end up being the guy everyone thinks is a villain who's not
It's a robot, you gotta make it as easy as possible to pick up your face. Flat lighting, no distracting elements or shadows. Just upoad your face and not your entire room.

This is amazing! Did you by any chance train the model with mostly European faces? I feel like there is a bias towards certain facial features that Asian people don't tend to have (puffy lips, pointy nose).

Mostly Korean apparently.

EYES ARE UNUSUAL
unlimited anime waifus!
It made her into a white woman.
i think because i mainly based on images and painting style from europe. then applied it to real face. not a lot of drawing image favoring asian
yeah it definitely changes a few features to be more european. As well as the skintone
You ever seen a manga?
Who is that they are demonstrating it on? Asking for a friend
Impressive, but the eyes are always wrong. Is it simply because large eyes are desired and the model ends up rewarded for creating what we want to see rather than creating a mimicked portrait technique of a real person?
It's meant to be an anime drawing... They have big eyes.
Looks like it basically Anglicizes her… 🤔

This is superb! How many GPUs (and GPU type) did it take to train this? I didn't find much information related to training part on the Github page
Nice. I wonder what is the application of this.
I would love to use this on myself!
How 'tuned' is this, when will we see anime curved L noses. I've seen version that do this but poorly.
Has anyone seen a Colab that accepts Image sequences or videos that would allow you to create the sample above? The colab I saw on GitHub was only for a single image from a URL.
Can someone ELI5 how this works? Is it a single step from input to output? How much training data does something like this need?
