Deepart.io – Generate images styled like your favorite artist
- mafro 11y agoThe results from this are incredible. I'd happily pay for a high-res image that I could have printed.
- Kiro 11y agoHow do you know? I need to wait 70 hours. Did you donate? EDIT: Just noticed Latest submissions. Ignore this. :)
- GFischer 11y agoMaybe you can contact them? http://www.deepart.io/page/about/ http://www.deepart.io/page/about/ "deepart.io is the first online service which allows you to generate images styled to your favorite artist! We apply an algorithm based on convolutional neural networks to combine the content of one image with the style of another image. The algorithm was introduced by Leon A. Gatys, Alexander S. Ecker, and Matthias Bethge in the research paper entitled 'A neural algorithm of artistic style'. We are two researchers, trying to give the access to novel machine learning techniques to larger audience. Unfortunatelly the server costs a lot and we cannot afford many... Thus, if you like our work, please consider helping us with a small donation for covering server costs. It's about art. We don't like ads (and they wouldn't cover expensive servers anyway). We also don't want to reduce the quality of the pictures. Your donation is our only hope :) Questions? E-mail us at admin@deepart.io Łukasz Kidziński & Michał Warchoł"
- caio1982 11y ago"Estimated waiting time: more than 58 hours" It's going to be a long, long time before being able to comment on the results (of a photo I submitted), but the latest submissions look fantastic!

- caio1982 11y agoYep, I did read that right below the ETA line :-) still it's a long time, isn't it? It doesn't diminish the quality of the results anyway, I know it was a great effort to put everything together (and it is even greater to maintain). I just don't feel compelled to pay for it yet.
- sago 11y agoIf you met the two guys who'd produced this, would you consider buying them a coffee? If so, the $1.99 to support some researchers and technology is hardly a big ask. You don't have to think of everything as 'paying for a good or service' - supporting folks doing something cool is just as valid (just don't tell the capitalist overlords).
- nness 11y agoFor those curious, someone has made a public implementation, using the same source material as the linked site: https://github.com/jcjohnson/neural-style https://github.com/jcjohnson/neural-style
- mafro 11y agoAwesome find :thumbsup: I don't want to wait forever for their service to generate pictures that are nowhere near printable :)
- dmd 11y agoI wrote up some easy instructions for doing it on ec2: http://dmd.3e.org/2015/09/Neurally-Stylin/ http://dmd.3e.org/2015/09/Neurally-Stylin/
- deadfish 11y agoDid you ever try with a g2.8xlarge instance? 600px seems a little low res for printing.
- dharma1 11y agoHow much GPU ram does the g2.8xlarge have? For printing an A4 at 300dpi you'd want 2480 x 3508px. If that doesn't fit in the GPU ram, and you are just doing this for yourself/friends it might be a better idea to run neural-style in CPU mode. An order of magnitude slower but you'll have a lot more ram at your disposal
- MasterScrat 11y agoOf course I had to see that after I'm done doing everything by hand... Did you try any of the other implementations of the paper?
- deleted 11y ago[deleted]
- jcfrei 11y agoCan't wait to see those pop up as facebook profile pictures. Sarcasm aside, some of them really look fantastic!
- buraksarica 11y agoI was just writing the same comment, then said to myself: "hey don't wake up hackers, do it yourself :p" and i continue to my boring paid job like nothing happened.
- orchestrate 11y agoGood resource. Liked it.
- sschueller 11y agoThe image I submitted is not the image shown to me on the submitted page (https://deepart.io/image/submissions/ https://deepart.io/image/submissions/). Instead it appears to be someone else's.
- jakejake 11y agoSame thing happened to me. I wonder if I'll get my image ? Wait time is 300 hours so it'll be a while.
- DaGardner 11y agowaiting time for my submission was 106h... that's insane. And if I'd donate €2.99 it would get reduced to 96h... (I know..., HN produced a lot of load on their servers...)
- TeeWEE 11y agoI cannot sign up, there is a 500 error
- anodari 11y agoCould add Romero Britto? (http://www.britto.com/front/originals http://www.britto.com/front/originals)
- methou 11y agoYou can upload your own image as the template, on the right side next to your target image.
- buraksarica 11y agoGreat service, a suggestion: You may provide small thumbnails of processed images so we can make a better decision before donation to speed up :)
- methou 11y agoI got a certificate revoked error, then I realized it was signed by WoSign.
- werber 11y agoIt be cool if you could add the name of the artist who's work your uploading. So excited to see my Manet-mashup!
- artur_makly 11y agoif you like Warhol, instead of waiting 213hrs - you could get a hand-made "poptrait" in 1 hr : http://popteam.io http://popteam.io
- nkozyra 11y agoThat's a lot of overhead for some otherwise very simple work in Photoshop.
- pavlov 11y agoDeep learning could become this decade's equivalent to the fractal craze of the 1990s. It will have arrived when the next Jurassic Park remake-sequel features a Jeff Goldblum look-a-like who is an expert in "deep computing" and has lines like this: "Of course the dinosaurs can rewrite computer programs! All this time, they've been watching, and their neural networks have been adapting... I told you it would happen."

- brobinson 11y agoIt's up for me, just really slow.
- dewashing 11y agoThis looks exactly like a hacktx Hack I saw http://devpost.com/software/filter-me http://devpost.com/software/filter-me
- designium 11y agoIt doesnt work for IOS Safari
- riskneural 11y agoIsn't bootstrap just amazing?
- dankohn1 11y agoThis seems like a great application to use AWS Lambda. It would allow you to do things like charge PayPal for sub-minute results, or perhaps show multiple ads until you generate enough revenue to pay for the usage.
- impostervt 11y agoToo many dependencies to fit into Lambda.
- larrys 11y agoIn case you miss the thread here at HN that mentions you: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10526572 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10526572
- dankohn1 11y agoThanks, I might have missed that.
- metachris 11y agoCurrent wait time: "more than 263 hours"
- lostmsu 11y agoI had a similar project in progress, but paper author's university declined to licence technology. Did you somehow managed to convince them, or did you register as non-profit?
- pepon 11y agodid they make a patent on that algorithm?
- lostmsu 11y agoIt is pending.
- MasterScrat 11y agoSo what would happen to these guys if the patent is granted? And do you think it is likely it will be?
- RivieraKid 11y agoHm, this is a nice example why software patents are wrong.
