## Overview
iGAN (aka. interactive GAN) is the author's implementation of interactive image generation interface described in:
"Generative Visual Manipulation on the Natural Image Manifold"
[Jun-Yan Zhu](https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~junyanz/), [Philipp Krähenbühl](http://www.philkr.net/), [Eli Shechtman](https://research.adobe.com/person/eli-shechtman/), [Alexei A. Efros](https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~efros/)
In European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) 2016

Given a few user strokes, our system could produce photo-realistic samples that best satisfy the user edits in real-time. Our system is based on deep generative models such as Generative Adversarial Networks ([GAN](https://arxiv.org/abs/1406.2661)) and [DCGAN](https://github.com/Newmu/dcgan_code). The system serves the following two purposes:
* An intelligent drawing interface for automatically generating images inspired by the color and shape of the brush strokes.
* An interactive visual debugging tool for understanding and visualizing deep generative models. By interacting with the generative model, a developer can understand what visual content the model can produce, as well as the limitation of the model.

## Getting started
* Install the python libraries. (See [Requirements](https://github.com/junyanz/iGAN#requirements)).
* Download the code from GitHub:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/junyanz/iGAN
cd iGAN
```
* Download the model. (See `Model Zoo` for details):
``` bash
bash ./models/scripts/download_dcgan_model.sh outdoor_64
```

* Run the python script:
``` bash
THEANO_FLAGS='device=gpu0, floatX=float32, nvcc.fastmath=True' python iGAN_main.py --model_name outdoor_64
```

## Requirements
The code is written in Python2 and requires the following 3rd party libraries:
* numpy
* [OpenCV](http://opencv.org/)
```bash
sudo apt-get install python-opencv
```
* [Theano](https://github.com/Theano/Theano)
```bash
sudo pip install --upgrade --no-deps git+git://github.com/Theano/Theano.git
```
* [PyQt4](https://wiki.python.org/moin/PyQt4): more details on Qt installation can be found [here](http://www.saltycrane.com/blog/2008/01/how-to-install-pyqt4-on-ubuntu-linux/)
```bash
sudo apt-get install python-qt4
```
* [Qdarkstyle](https://github.com/ColinDuquesnoy/QDarkStyleSheet)
```bash
sudo pip install qdarkstyle
```
* [dominate](https://github.com/Knio/dominate)
```bash
sudo pip install dominate
```
* GPU + CUDA + cuDNN:
The code is tested on GTX Titan X + CUDA 7.5 + cuDNN 5. Here are the tutorials on how to install [CUDA](http://www.r-tutor.com/gpu-computing/cuda-installation/cuda7.5-ubuntu) and [cuDNN](http://askubuntu.com/questions/767269/how-can-i-install-cudnn-on-ubuntu-16-04). A decent GPU is required to run the system in real-time. [**Warning**] If you run the program on a GPU server, you need to use remote desktop software (e.g., VNC), which may introduce display artifacts and latency problem.

## Python3
For `Python3` users, you need to replace `pip` with `pip3`:
* PyQt4 with Python3:
``` bash
sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt4
```
* OpenCV3 with Python3: see the installation [instruction](http://www.pyimagesearch.com/2015/07/20/install-opencv-3-0-and-python-3-4-on-ubuntu/).

## Interface:
See [[Youtube]](https://youtu.be/9c4z6YsBGQ0?t=2m18s) at 2:18s for the interactive image generation demos.

#### Layout
* Drawing Pad: This is the main window of our interface. A user can apply different edits via our brush tools, and the system will display the generated image. Check/Uncheck `Edits` button to display/hide user edits.
* Candidate Results: a display showing thumbnails of all the candidate results (e.g., different modes) that fits the user edits. A user can click a mode (highlighted by a green rectangle), and the drawing pad will show this result.
* Brush Tools: `Coloring Brush` for changing the color of a specific region; `Sketching brush` for outlining the shape. `Warping brush` for modifying the shape more explicitly.
* Slider Bar: drag the slider bar to explore the interpolation sequence between the initial result (i.e., randomly generated image) and the current result (e.g., image that satisfies the user edits).
* Control Panel: `Play`: play the interpolation sequence; `Fix`: use the current result as additional constraints for further editing `Restart`: restart the system; `Save`: save the result to a webpage. `Edits`: Check the box if you would like to show the edits on top of the generated image.

#### User interaction
* `Coloring Brush`: right-click to select a color; hold left click to paint; scroll the mouse wheel to adjust the width of the brush.
* `Sketching Brush`: hold left-click to sketch the shape.
* `Warping Brush`: We recommend you first use coloring and sketching before the warping brush. Right-click to select a square region; hold left click to drag the region; scroll the mouse wheel to adjust the size of the square region.
* Shortcuts: P for `Play`, F for `Fix`, R for `Restart`; S for `Save`; E for `Edits`; Q for quitting the program.
* Tooltips: when you move the cursor over a button, the system will display the tooltip of the button.

## Model Zoo:
Download the Theano DCGAN model (e.g., outdoor_64). Before using our system, please check out the random real images vs. DCGAN generated samples to see which kind of images that a model can produce.

``` bash
bash ./models/scripts/download_dcgan_model.sh outdoor_64
```

(Use this model with `--shadow` flag)

We provide a simple script to generate samples from a pre-trained DCGAN model. You can run this script to test if Theano, CUDA, cuDNN are configured properly before running our interface.
```bash
THEANO_FLAGS='device=gpu0, floatX=float32, nvcc.fastmath=True' python generate_samples.py --model_name outdoor_64 --output_image outdoor_64_dcgan.png
```

## Command line arguments:
Type `python iGAN_main.py --help` for a complete list of the arguments. Here we discuss some important arguments:
* `--model_name`: the name of the model (e.g., outdoor_64, shoes_64, etc.)
* `--model_type`: currently only supports dcgan_theano.
* `--model_file`: the file that stores the generative model; If not specified, `model_file='./models/%s.%s' % (model_name, model_type)`
* `--top_k`: the number of the candidate results being displayed
* `--average`: show an average image in the main window. Inspired by [AverageExplorer](https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~junyanz/projects/averageExplorer/), average image is a weighted average of multiple generated results, with the weights reflecting user-indicated importance. You can switch between average mode and normal mode by press `A`.
* `--shadow`: We build a sketching assistance system for guiding the freeform drawing of objects inspired by [ShadowDraw](http://vision.cs.utexas.edu/projects/shadowdraw/shadowdraw.html)
To use the interface, download the model `hed_shoes_64` and run the following script
```bash
THEANO_FLAGS='device=gpu0, floatX=float32, nvcc.fastmath=True' python iGAN_main.py --model_name hed_shoes_64 --shadow --average
```

## Dataset and Training
See more details [here](./train_dcgan/README.md)

## Projecting an Image onto Latent Space

We provide a script to project an image into latent space (i.e., `x->z`):
* Download the pre-trained AlexNet model (`conv4`):
```bash
bash models/scripts/download_alexnet.sh conv4
```
* Run the following script with a model and an input image. (e.g., model: `shoes_64.dcgan_theano`, and input image `./pics/shoes_test.png`)
```bash
THEANO_FLAGS='device=gpu0, floatX=float32, nvcc.fastmath=True' python iGAN_predict.py --model_name shoes_64 --input_image ./pics/shoes_test.png --solver cnn_opt
```
* Check the result saved in `./pics/shoes_test_cnn_opt.png`
* We provide three methods: `opt` for optimization method; `cnn` for feed-forward network method (fastest); `cnn_opt` hybrid of the previous methods (default and best). Type `python iGAN_predict.py --help` for a complete list of the arguments.

## Script without UI

We also provide a standalone script that should work without UI. Given user constraints (i.e., a color map, a color mask, and an edge map), the script generates multiple images that mostly satisfy the user constraints. See `python iGAN_script.py --help` for more details.
```bash
THEANO_FLAGS='device=gpu0, floatX=float32, nvcc.fastmath=True' python iGAN_script.py --model_name outdoor_64
```
