A team of researchers has developed a tool that will paint your portrait for you.
— clem ? (@ClementDelangue) August 11, 2021 Dubbed Paint Transformer, the system predicts the parameters of a stroke set with a feed-forward network. “This way, our model can generate a set of strokes in parallel and obtain the final painting of size 512 × 512 in near real-time,” the researchers wrote in their study paper. You can also watch the artificial brushstrokes bring the painting to life.
You can try the tool out for yourself here and read the pre-print study paper on arXiv.
