Code for #GANcraft (ICCV'21) has been released at , with pretrained models & training instructions. You can even import your own worlds and make them real! This also includes updates to the #Imaginaire repo to make it faster, better, and more awesome!

GANcraft also allows you to condition the outputs on a style-conditioning image, and interpolate between styles. It works on large input worlds of 512x512x256 blocks, corresponding to 32 real-world soccer fields! It still produces features smaller than a block, e.g. flowers!

In the absence of paired training data mapping Minecraft scenes to real images, we use "pseudo-ground truths", generated by a GAN pretrained image-to-image translation network. These serve as surprisingly good proxies to real ground truths.

It can handle diverse input labels in the same world, for example, water, grass, trees, and snow covered mountains in this scene (input 3D block world shown in inset).

It can even handle input worlds with label distributions very different from collections of real-world imagery. For example, in the video below, the desert label accounts for > 50% of the world, while online landscape photo collections typically have a lower fraction of desert.

As im2im models are not view-consistent, we try to explain away inconsistencies via learning a style encoder that modulates generator activations. By using a combination of pixelwise, perceptual, and adversarial losses, we obtain realistic-looking outputs.

These synthesized dream images enable a new class of "data-free" tasks which do not need any prior images/labeled data/metadata. We show applications to knowledge transfer, network pruning & incremental learning. This work poses new questions about data & model privacy/security.

@phrogz42 Having paired training data would definitely improve the realism, but I imagine it would be hard to scale up skilled manual effort. The "pseudo-ground truths" were a way to transfer knowledge from powerful im2im translation networks to this task.

SPACE decomposes the task of speech to face animation into 3 stages: 1) Speech2Landmarks (S2L), 2) Landmarks2Latents (L2L), and 3) Video Synthesis. This allows for any keypoint transformations, including blinking and eye gaze
