Question regarding transparent images

[NickAcPT]

Is it possible to use this project to generate images with transparency?

[lucidrains]

it should be possible! do you have a good dataset?

edit - possible after some code modifications

[NickAcPT]

I have a dataset with 400k 64x64 images with transparency. It is 700 mb I think

The problem is that I've been training StyleGAN with them already. Guess I'll need to restart.

[lucidrains]

Could you send me a small subset (like 100 samples) of your dataset? I'm thinking perhaps with a flag like --with-transparency, and images will be stored as PNGs

[NickAcPT]

Sorry for the huge delay.
Here is a small subset of my dataset with 100 files.

Also, I'll have to restart training and scrap my trained model, right?

[lucidrains]

@NickAcPT Stylegan1 isn't too bad! Why not keep training with the old model?

[NickAcPT]

What about transparency then?

Also, I forgot to type the 2 in front of StyleGAN. I've used this project to train it.

[lucidrains]

@NickAcPT Oh I see, I thought you meant the official repo. Ok, will add!

[lucidrains]

@NickAcPT here you go! a86eef2

[NickAcPT]

Thanks a lot!
Regarding the already trained set, the best is to retrain from scratch, right?

[lucidrains]

@NickAcPT yes! you will have to restart!

[NickAcPT]

Once again, thanks a lot!
