1.What I have done

Read essays about Pix2Code cases and try someā€¦ I gave up due to the huge amount of machine learning data for almost two months without certain positive feedback. Process

2.What I will do

Try model training and style transfer.

Backgroundļ¼šThere are multiple ways of performing style transfer on videos, the simplest of which is to repeatedly loop the still image style transfer process on each successive frame in a video. Other approaches/improvements on this method deal with optimizing smoothness of the output video from frame to frame. We chose to go with the simplest method of style transfer for videos by continuously performing image to image style transfer on each frame of the input video.

My goal: implementing style transfer on real-time video

First, train the neural network on styles we are interested in. https://www.tensorflow.org/tutorials/generative/style_transfer?hl=zh-cn

Next, take input from the webcam in the form of a streaming video.

Then, sample the video stream to acquire still images.

Finally, stylize and display the webcam images.

The end result may be a live reflection of what is seen in the webcam with a style applied on top, further, embed it in a web page.

The difficulty/challenge: Train the model

Some Resultsļ¼š

Todoļ¼š

1.add manual adjustment for the effect

2.Use learner. js to add a quick training effect, such as when peopleā€™s action or expression is captured by the camera, we can adopt a corresponding style transfer, a timely matching and dynamic adjustment.
