StyleTransfer-CPP

Compiling

In order to compile you need to download the Libtorch library. Just run the script provided: sh download_torch.sh The rest of the process is classic CMake workflow: mkdir build ; cd build ; cmake .. && make

Running

In order to get anything running, we need to download the trained VGG weights and convert then to a format that can be loaded in C++. To do that we use python and torchvision to get the model, and convert it to a C++ torch saved object. To do so used the provided script:

pip install torchvision
cd tools/modelExporter
python3 python2CPP.py

This script will create a VGG.pt file that contains the trained VGG weight in a C++ format. You need to copy or link this file in the folder from where you run your executable.

cd build
ln -s ../tools/modelExporter/VGG.pt .

Now everything is ready, you can run the StyleTransferCLI executable StyleTransferCLI PATH_TO_CONTENT_IMAGE.png PATH_TO_STYLE_IMAGE
