Abstract

Many image translation methods based on conditional generative adversarial networks can transform images from one domain to another, but the results of many methods are at a low resolution. We present a modified pix2pixHD model, which generates high-resolution tiled clothing from a model wearing clothes. We choose a single Markovian discriminator instead of a multi-scale discriminator for a faster training speed, added a perceptual loss term, and improved the feature matching loss. Deeper feature maps have lower weights when calculating losses. A dataset was specifically built for this improved model, which contains over 20,000 paired high-quality tiled clothing. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of our improved method and can be extended to other fields.
