Semantics-Aware Image to Image Translation and Domain Transfer

Image to image translation is the problem of transferring an image from a source domain to a different (but related) target domain. We present a new unsupervised image to image translation technique that leverages the underlying semantic information for object transfiguration and domain transfer tasks. Specifically, we present a generative adversarial learning approach that jointly translates images and labels from a source domain to a target domain. Our main technical contribution is an encoder-decoder based network architecture that jointly encodes the image and its underlying semantics and translates both individually to the target domain. Additionally, we propose object transfiguration and cross-domain semantic consistency losses that preserve semantic labels. Through extensive experimental evaluation, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach as compared to the state-of-the-art methods on unsupervised image-to-image translation, domain adaptation, and object transfiguration.
