Abstract

Systems and techniques that synthesize an image with similar texture to a selected style image. A generator network is trained to synthesize texture images depending on a selection unit input. The training configures the generator network to synthesize texture images that are similar to individual style images of multiple style images based on which is selected by the selection unit input. The generator network can be configured to minimize a covariance matrix-based style loss and/or a diversity loss in synthesizing the texture images. After training the generator network, the generator network is used to synthesize texture images for selected style images. For example, this can involve receiving user input selecting a selected style image, determining the selection unit input based on the selected style image, and synthesizing texture images using the generator network with the selection unit input and noise input.
