Style Transfer: From Stitching to Neural Networks

Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This article compares two style transfer methods in image processing: the traditional method, which synthesizes new images by stitching together small patches from existing pattern images, and a modern machine learning-based approach that uses a segmentation network to isolate foreground objects and apply style transfer solely to the background. The traditional method excels in creating artistic abstractions but can struggle with seamlessness, whereas the machine learning method preserves the integrity of foreground elements while enhancing the background, offering improved aesthetic quality and computational efficiency. Our study indicates that machine learning-based methods are more suited for real-world applications where detail preservation in foreground elements is essential.
