Zusammenfassung: | Arbitrary style transfer aims at migrating the style of a reference style painting to a target content image. Existing methods find it challenging to achieve good content fidelity and style migration at the same time. Moreover, they all rely on manually defined content and style, which is of limited universality and robustness. In this paper, we propose to introduce contrastive learning into style transfer, instructing the network to automatically learn to model the structural content and artistic style based on natural contrastive relationships in style transfer. Compared with existing methods, our learned modeling of content and style is more robust and universal. In addition, we further propose instance-wise contrastive style losses and a patch-wise contrastive content loss to guide style transfer. Combining the proposed contrastive losses and two self-reconstruction strategies, we develop a new style transfer framework, which is pluggable and can be flexibly applied to various style transfer modules. Experimental results demonstrate that our method has strong flexibility and synthesizes stylized images with higher quality |
