ICCV 2021

Prerequisites

• Linux or macOS

• Python 3

• PyTorch 1.7+ and other dependencies (torchvision, visdom, dominate, and other common python libs)

• Getting Started

  • Clone this repository:

    git clone https://github.com/Huage001/AdaAttN
    cd AdaAttN

  • Inference:

    • Make a directory for checkpoints if there is not:

      mkdir checkpoints

    • Download pretrained model from Google Drive, move it to checkpoints directory, and unzip:

      mv [Download Directory]/AdaAttN_model.zip checkpoints/
      unzip checkpoints/AdaAttN_model.zip
      rm checkpoints/AdaAttN_model.zip

    • Configure content_path and style_path in test_adaattn.sh firstly, indicating paths to folders of testing content images and testing style images respectively.

    • Then, simply run:

      bash test_adaattn.sh

    • Check the results under results/AdaAttN folder.

  • Train:

    • Download 'vgg_normalised.pth' from here.

    • Download COCO dataset and WikiArt dataset and then extract them.

    • Configure content_path, style_path, and image_encoder_path in train_adaattn.sh, indicating paths to folders of training content images, training style images, and 'vgg_normalised.pth' respectively.

    • Before training, start visdom server:

      python -m visdom.server

    • Then, simply run:

      bash train_adaattn.sh

    • You can monitor training status at http://localhost:8097/ and models would be saved at checkpoints/AdaAttN folder.

    • You may feel free to try other training options written in train_adaattn.sh.
