project page | paper | twitter | zhihu | bilibili

Tensorflow implementation for CVPR2020 paper “Learning to Cartoonize Using White-box Cartoon Representations”.

Use cases

Scenery

Food

Indoor Scenes

People

More Images Are Shown In The Supplementary Materials

Prerequisites

Training code: Linux or Windows
NVIDIA GPU + CUDA CuDNN for performance
Inference code: Linux, Windows and MacOS

How To Use

Installation

Assume you already have NVIDIA GPU and CUDA CuDNN installed
Install tensorflow-gpu, we tested 1.12.0 and 1.13.0rc0
Install scikit-image==0.14.5, other versions may cause problems

Inference with Pre-trained Model

Store test images in /test_code/test_images
Run /test_code/cartoonize.py
Results will be saved in /test_code/cartoonized_images

Train

Place your training data in corresponding folders in /dataset
Run pretrain.py, results will be saved in /pretrain folder
Run train.py, results will be saved in /train_cartoon folder
Codes are cleaned from production environment and untested
There may be minor problems but should be easy to resolve
Pretrained VGG_19 model can be found at following url:

Datasets

Due to copyright issues, we cannot provide cartoon images used for training
However, these training datasets are easy to prepare
Scenery images are collected from Shinkai Makoto, Miyazaki Hayao and Hosoda Mamoru films
Clip films into frames and random crop and resize to 256x256
Portrait images are from Kyoto animations and PA Works
We use this repo(https://github.com/nagadomi/lbpcascade_animeface) to detect facial areas
Manual data cleaning will greatly increace both datasets quality
