StyleGAN1's public release was February 2019, and it's capable of far more than just faces. > Three years ago there was nothing remotely as impressive as modern GPT style I predicted that! Albeit, not publicly, so I can't proveit. My predictions claimed it would have certain limitations, which GPT-3 (and, later, GPT-4) exhibit. I can show that those still exist, but few people on Hacker News seem to understand when I try to communicate that.² > or text to image models. Artbreeder (then called Ganbreeder) existed…

A lot depends on what you're interested in. Some papers that are runnable on a laptop CPU (so long as you stick to small image sizes/tasks): 1) Generative Adversarial Networks (https://arxiv.org/abs/1406.2661). Good practice to have a custom training loops, different optimisers and networks etc. 2) Neural Style Transfer (https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.06576). Nice to be able to manipulate pretrained networks and intercept intermediate layers. 3) Deep Image Prior (https://arxiv.org/abs/1711.10925). Nice low-data exercise in building out an autoencoder. 4) Physics Informed Neural Networks…

That is one of the two concerns. The other concern, is that will be a paid product. It's users decide to pay or not, based on the quality of the code suggestions. The quality of the code suggestions are tied to the quality of the training corpus. The manufacturer of the product needs to get permission, explicitly, or implicitly via a license associated with the code corpus, to use the training set on the building of the commercial product. Speaking exclusively for US jurisdictions, so far courts seem to have been accommodating to the so called discriminative algorithms, but the jury is still…

There's no technical reason for not being able to achieve this sort of 'machine creativity' with texts. It's just a harder version of the same problem. > I can see AI work for short, simple, well-written texts. Heck, even long manuals with repetitive blocks of text from manual to manual.

Ah okay right this is the answer. Previous approaches [1] are deep generative models that you have to optimize for each input, whereas here you run just a forward evaluation on a model that you've trained beforehand. I would still argue the term closed-form is misleading here, because: - Even during training at any given time you can read off a "closed-form expression" of the neural network of this type, so closed-form in this broad sense really doesn't mean much. Furthermore any result of any numerical computation ever are also closed-form solutions according to this, on the grounds that…

Absolutely you can do 'AI Research' without a degree in maths. Sure you need a grounding in linear algebra, stats, probability and calculus, but not much more than a CS or physics degree will teach you. That stuff is indeed learned easily, and it's not what the Reddit user is worried about. That also ignores applications of machine learning, which is also a massive (and lucrative) field. But because it's a trendy field, I think there is an obsession with people needing to understand everything theoretical that comes out for fear of missing the boat. Some of the really interesting papers that…

It's just that, yeah, when it comes to it if I have to choose between citing something some guy wrote on a blog or citing Arxiv, I'll choose the latter every time. But my question was not about whether arxiv is an appropriate medium for publishing ideas, I'm certainly not arguing that it should go away, but…

Hi savanaly, When we talk about "what makes Bach sound like Bach," the technical concept we have in mind is the recent work in computer vision on style transfer. For example, https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.06576 We are excited to work on adapting these models to the musical domain! As for note prediction, you can see our results in our paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1611.09827 Our are results for simple (2-layer, not very "deep" models); we were interested in understanding the low-level "features" of music rather than building a model that maximizes performance. Nevertheless, the results are quite…

Maybe this?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rfhxy2w3Qi4 Using a gram matrix across several layers to hold the style, and more conventional activation optimization for the content. Trained on VGG. It combines the two loss functions of style and content to optimise noise towards a output image. The amazing thing is being able to mathematically separate content from style; in a similar fashion to how the brain can perform this task. See: https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.06576 Fwiw, I'm part of a group trying a similar thing on very deep residual net's with recurrent net's to improve upon the temporal…

They say they use a variation on the neural art transfer algorithm: "We apply an algorithm developed by Leon Gatys, Alexander Ecker and Matthias Bethge. " https://deepart.io/page/about/ https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.06576 There are various tweaks for how to do it and some hacks to make it faster, so they probably iterated to get better results.

The demo uses WebGL, and if you can't get the demo to work, you can here(https://github.com/Erkaman/regl-cnn) find a recorded gif that shows what it is supposed to look like. This demo does handwritten digit recognition by evaluating a Convolutional Neural Network on the GPU with WebGL. The network was trained in TensorFlow by this script here(https://github.com/Erkaman/regl-cnn/blob/gh-pages/scripts/cr...), and the network was then reimplemented on the GPU by hand with WebGL. The main purpose of the demo was to demonstate how our WebGL framework regl(https://github.com/mikolalysenko/regl)…

It's actual synthesis of new images in the style of a desired painter.

According to their about page, that site is using this algorithm http://arxiv.org/pdf/1508.06576.pdf whereas neural-image-analogies is a combination of http://www.mrl.nyu.edu/projects/image-analogies/index.html and http://arxiv.org/pdf/1601.04589v1.pdf Basically you can do a few other things with image analogies, such as texture-by-numbers, that the neural style algo doesn't cover. In addition, the matching and blending covered in the Li and Wand paper provides more accurate style details.
