Editing in Style: Uncovering the Local Semantics of GANs

While the quality of GAN image synthesis has improved tremendously in recent years, our ability to control and condition the output is still limited. Focusing on StyleGAN, we introduce a simple and effective method for making local, semantically-aware edit ...

Deep Feature Factorization For Content-Based Image Retrieval And Localization

Sabine Süsstrunk, Edo Collins

State of the art content-based image retrieval algorithms owe their excellent performance to the rich semantics encoded in the deep activations of a convolutional neural network. The difference between these algorithms lies mostly in how activations are co ...

Deep Feature Factorization for Concept Discovery

Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta, Edo Collins

We propose Deep Feature Factorization (DFF), a method capable of localizing similar semantic concepts within an image or a set of images. We use DFF to gain insight into a deep convolutional neural network's learned features, where we detect hierarchical c ...
