|
- [Makoto Shinkai （新海誠）](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makoto_Shinkai) 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 [Kimi no Na wa](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimi_no_Na_wa) with a photorealistic painting style.
|
|
- The implementation is in PyTorch (see [source code here](https://huggingface.co/spaces/akiyamasho/AnimeBackgroundGAN/blob/main/network/Transformer.py)).
