A Sketch-Transformer Network for Face Photo-Sketch Synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Thirtieth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2021
We present a face photo-sketch synthesis model, which converts a face photo into an artistic face sketch or recover a photo-realistic facial image from a sketch portrait. Recent progress has been made by convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and generative adversarial networks (GANs), so that promising results can be obtained through real-time end-to ...

MHGAN: Multi-Hierarchies Generative Adversarial Network for High-Quality Face Sketch Synthesis

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Face sketch synthesis has made significant progress in the past few years. Recently, GAN-based methods have shown promising results on image-to-image translation problems, especially photo-to-sketch synthesis.

Face sketch synthesis and recognition [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings Ninth IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision, 2003
We propose a novel face photo retrieval system using sketch drawings. By transforming a photo image into a sketch, we reduce the difference between photo and sketch significantly, thus allow effective matching between the two. To improve the synthesis performance, we separate shape and texture information in a face photo, and conduct transformation on ...

Multi-Scale Feature Channel Attention Generative Adversarial Network for Face Sketch Synthesis

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Face sketch synthesis for photos is an applied research topic and it is critical for criminal investigation. However, sketch synthesis remains some challenges because of the blur and artifacts in the generated face sketches. To mitigate these problems in

Union is Strength: Improving face sketch synthesis by fusing outcomes of Fully-Convolutional-Networks and Random Sampling Locality Constraint

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2022
Automated formulation of sketches from face photos has seen successive growth since the work of Wang and Tang in recent years. Each new methodology is, however, able to partially achieve its objective of sketch synthesis while using pairs of photos and ...

Random sampling for fast face sketch synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesPattern Recognition, 2018
Exemplar-based face sketch synthesis plays an important role in both digital entertainment and law enforcement. It generally consists of two parts: neighbor selection and reconstruction weight representation. The most time-consuming or main computation complexity for exemplar-based face sketch synthesis methods lies in the neighbor selection process ...

A Joint Training Model for Face Sketch Synthesis

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
The exemplar-based method is most frequently used in face sketch synthesis because of its efficiency in representing the nonlinear mapping between face photos and sketches.

Multi-Level Cycle-Consistent Adversarial Networks with Attention Mechanism for Face Sketch-Photo Synthesis

open access: yesSensors, 2022
The synthesis between face sketches and face photos has important application values in law enforcement and digital entertainment. In cases of a lack of paired sketch-photo data, this paper proposes an unsupervised model to solve the problems of missing ...

A Simple Framework for Face Photo‐Sketch Synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2011
This paper proposes a simple framework for face photo‐sketch synthesis. We first describe the shadow details on faces and extract the prominent facial feature by two‐scale decomposition using bilateral filtering. Then, we enhance the hair and some unapparent facial feature regions by combining the edge map and hair color similarity map.

A Superpixel-Wise Approach for Face Sketch Synthesis

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Face sketch synthesis from an input photo has drawn great attention in law enforcement and digital entertainment applications. Currently, the input photo is simply divided into overlapped rectangular patches and transformed to a sketch through weighted ...
