Publisher description

Implement various state-of-the-art architectures, such as GANs and autoencoders, for image generation using TensorFlow 2.x from scratchKey FeaturesUnderstand the different architectures for image generation, including autoencoders and GANsBuild models that can edit an image of your face, turn photos into paintings, and generate photorealistic imagesDiscover how you can build deep neural networks with advanced TensorFlow 2.x featuresBook DescriptionThe emerging field of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) has made it possible to generate indistinguishable images from existing datasets. With this hands-on book, you'll not only develop image generation skills but also gain a solid understanding of the underlying principles.Starting with an introduction to the fundamentals of image generation using TensorFlow, this book covers Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) and GANs. You'll discover how to build models for different applications as you get to grips with performing face swaps using deepfakes, neural style transfer, image-to-image translation, turning simple images into photorealistic images, and much more. You'll also understand how and why to construct state-of-the-art deep neural networks using advanced techniques such as spectral normalization and self-attention layer before working with advanced models for face generation and editing. You'll also be introduced to photo restoration, text-to-image synthesis, video retargeting, and neural rendering. Throughout the book, you'll learn to implement models from scratch in TensorFlow 2.x, including PixelCNN, VAE, DCGAN, WGAN, pix2pix, CycleGAN, StyleGAN, GauGAN, and BigGAN.By the end of this book, you'll be well versed in TensorFlow and be able to implement image generative technologies confidently.What you will learnTrain on face datasets and use them to explore latent spaces for editing new facesGet to grips with swapping faces with deepfakesPerform style transfer to convert a photo into a paintingBuild and train pix2pix, CycleGAN, and BicycleGAN for image-to-image translationUse iGAN to understand manifold interpolation and GauGAN to turn simple images into photorealistic imagesBecome well versed in attention generative models such as SAGAN and BigGANGenerate high-resolution photos with Progressive GAN and StyleGANWho this book is forThe Hands-On Image Generation with TensorFlow book is for deep learning engineers, practitioners, and researchers who have basic knowledge of convolutional neural networks and want to learn various image generation techniques using TensorFlow 2.x. You'll also find this book useful if you are an image processing professional or computer vision engineer looking to explore state-of-the-art architectures to improve and enhance images and videos. Knowledge of Python and TensorFlow will help you to get the best out of this book
