Fast Style Transfer

2 July, 2018

This page uses the approach introduced by Johnson et al in this paper which allows us to transfer the style in realtime.

This is the result of playing around with hyper parameters for quite some time but it is still not as good as the samples shown in the paper. More tweaking required...
