About Me
- Machine Intelligence / Startups / Finance
-
- Moved from NYC to Singapore in Sep-2013
- 2014 = 'fun' :
-
- Machine Learning, Deep Learning, NLP
- Robots, drones
- Since 2015 = 'serious' :: NLP + deep learning
-
CNN Review
- Pixels in an images are 'organised' :
-
- Up/down left/right
- Translational invariance
- Idea : Use whole image as feature
-
- Update parameters of 'Photoshop filters'
- Mathematical term : 'convolution kernel'
-
- CNN = Convolutional Neural Network
CNN Filter
CNN Model Overview
Image Competition
- ImageNet aka ILSVRC
- over 15 million labeled high-resolution images...
- ... in over 22,000 categories
ImageNet-googlenet
- Pre-trained networks are available :
GoogLeNet (2014)
Layers of Features
AlexNet (2012)
Let's Abuse a CNN
- Last time : Speech Recognition
- Now : Creating Art
Style-Transfer
- Combine :
-
- Regular photo (you provide)
- An artist's style (another photo)
- 'Understand' both using CNN features
Style-Transfer idea
- Start out with a copy of your photo
- Change it to mimic :
-
- Fine features from the original
- Style features from the artist
- A good looking result
Style-Transfer details
- Start with image==photo (or random noise)
- Update image to minimise (gradient descent) :
-
- Pixel-wise L2 vs photo features
- Gram-matrix similarity vs style features
- Self total-variational-loss
- Change parameters according to taste
Some Examples
(Apologies to the artists)
Starry Canal (~ van Gogh)
Mediterranean Canal (~ Picasso )
