Swapping Autoencoder Interface

An interactive interface for swapping autoencoder

💡 Project Description

Our project builds on the paper Swapping Autoencoder for Deep Image Manipulation by Taesung Park, Jun-Yan Zhu, Oliver Wang, Jingwan Lu, Eli Shechtman, Alexei A. Efros, Richard Zhang. Our goal with this project was to make it easier for artists to use it as a tool. In that effort, we have introduced 3 interfaces to interact with a pre-trained model and edit images.

📌 Prerequisites

💻 System requirement :

1. Nvidia GPU + CUDA.
2. Operating System : Any (Windows / Linux / Mac).

💿 Software requirement :

1. python 3.8
2. poetry (Check out poetry here)

🔧 Installation

Step One - install python dependencies

$ poetry install

Step Two - Download pretrained models

Head over to the Testing and Evaluation section of the official implementation of the paper and download the pretrained models and unzip them, put the checkpoints at ./checkpoints/, you can change this location by specifying it at api/const.py:7

🏁 Quick Start

Streamlit Interface

$ streamlit run streamlit_interface.py
