Coloring With Limited Data: Few-Shot Colorization via Memory Augmented Networks

Overview

An unofficial implementation of MemoPainter described in the paper using PyTorch.

• Coloring With Limited Data: Few-shot Colorization via Memory Augmented Networks

Published in CVPR 2019, written by S. Yoo, H. Bahng, S. Chung, J. Lee, J. Chang and J. Choo

Requirement

• Python 3.6.5
• PyTorch 1.1.0
• Pillow 5.1.0
• numpy 1.14.5
• scikit-image 0.15.0
• scikit-learn 0.19.0
• colorthief 0.2.1

Datasets

• Oxford102
• Pokemon (For one-shot colorization)
• Superhero (For few-shot colorization) I crawled images from the internet.

Pre-trained model

• FlowerColorizationModel (Color_feature : RGB colors extracted by ColorThief)

• PokemonColorizationModel (Color_feature : Color distribution)

Important Configurations

All recommeded values for configurations are based on paper and supplementary material.

1. --color_info : Should be 'RGB' or 'dist'. What you want to use as a color information for color feature.

2. --color_feat_dim : If you use RGB color information, the option should be 30. If you use color distribution as a color information, the option should be 313.

3. --mem_size : The memory size. It is remmended to set the memory size to 1.2 times the size of training set.

4. --top_k : The parameter for computing the kNN with respect to cosine similarity. It is recommended to set --top_k to 32, if you use RGB color_info. If you use color distribution as color feature, to setting --top_k to 256 is recommended.

Train & Test

If you refer to run.sh in my repository, you can know how to train and test.

Experimental Results

Experimental results on Oxford102 dataset.

I randomly split the oxford102 dataset into a training set(80%) and a test set(20%)
