Re:Draw — Context Aware Translation as a Controllable Method for Artistic Production

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Joao Liborio Cardoso, Francesco Banterle, Paolo Cignoni, Michael Wimmer, | Summary: We introduce context-aware translation, a novel method that combines the benefits of inpainting and image-to-image translation, respecting simultaneously the original input and contextual relevance — where existing methods fall short. By doing so, our method opens […]
