Algorithm turns any picture into the work of a famous artist

A group of German researchers have created an algorithm that basically amounts to the most amazing Instagram filter ever conceived: a convolutional neural network that can convert any photograph into a work of fine art. The process takes an hour (sorry, it’s notactually coming to a smartphone near you), and the math behind it is horrendously complicated, but the results speak for themselves.

One thought on “Algorithm turns any picture into the work of a famous artist”

  1. It doesn’t actually use a full i7 core-hour, but it emulates going to Europe during a BFA and changing majors twice, so that’s the kind of fill brushwork you can expect. Better than the loo for selfie BG by perhaps even more than autoawesome.

    In other news, what if you fix brightness (and the gamut colorspace) before you send the input image, I wonder.

    Well then: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1508.06576v1.pdf? I don’t always pdf, but when I do I include 400lpi print samples.
