# AnimeBackgroundGAN (CartoonGAN by Chen et. al.)
<img src="https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BNjNjYTRkNGUtMGQ2MS00MTFiLTg0OTEtYTM3MmM1YTY1OTM1XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNjc3OTE4Nzk@._V1_.jpg" alt="Paprika directed by Satoshi Kon" style="height: 300px;"/>
- [Satoshi Kon(今敏)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satoshi_Kon) pre-trained model from [CartoonGAN](http://openaccess.thecvf.com/content_cvpr_2018/CameraReady/2205.pdf) `[Chen et al., CVPR18]`.
- This model can transform real-life photos into Japanese-animation-like backgrounds, following the style of movies such as [Paprika](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paprika_(2006_film)) with a distinct high contrast, reddish hue style.
- The implementation is in PyTorch (see [source code here](https://huggingface.co/spaces/akiyamasho/AnimeBackgroundGAN/blob/main/network/Transformer.py)).
- Check out the demo here:

# Other pre-trained model versions
The other versions were also trained from movies of the different Japanese animation directors.
##### Mamoru Hosoda(細田守)
- director of [Wolf Children](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_Children), with a distinct mild and cool background style

##### Makoto Shinkai (新海誠)
- director of [Kimi no Na wa](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimi_no_Na_wa) with a photorealistic painting style

##### Hayao Miyazaki(宮崎駿)
- director of [Howl's Moving Castle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howl%27s_Moving_Castle_(film)) with a relatively soft and painterly style
