How to use Pixel2Style2Pixel for Image-To-Image Translation
Pixel2Style2Pixel (pSp) is an end-to-end image translation framework that builds upon the representative power of a pre-trained StyleGAN generator and the W+ latent space. The framework proposes a new encoder network that can directly embed real images into W+ latent space. It also introduces an identity loss which helps improve image reconstruction performance. Architecture & Approach Pixel2Style2Pixel uses a fixed StyleGAN2 generator trained on the FFHQ dataset and a ResNet-IR architecture pre-trained on face recognition as the backbone network. StyleGAN showed that the different style inputs correspond to different levels of detail, roughly divided into three groups – coarse, medium, and fine. Taking note of this, the Pixel2Style2Pixel encoder backbone is extended with a feature pyramid. This feature pyramid generates three levels of feature maps from which styles are extracted using an intermediate network – map2style. The generated style vectors are fed into the StlyeGAN generator corresponding to their scale to generate the output image thus completing the translation from input pixels to output pixels through the intermediate style representation. Another benefit of StyleGAN’s layer-wise representation is its ability to disentangle semantic objects. This ability to independently manipulate semantic attributes leads to another desired property: the support for multi-modal synthesis. Several image-to-image translation tasks are ambiguous, i.e., a single input image may correspond to several outputs. Therefore, it is desirable to be able to sample all these possible outputs. While standard image-to-image architectures require specialized changes, Pixel2Style2Pixel inherently supports this by simply sampling style vectors. This is done by randomly sampling a random 512-dimensional and generating a corresponding latent code in W+. The styles of this randomly generated latent code, wR, and the computed latent code of the input image, wI, are mixed by inserting select layers of wR into the corresponding layers of wI, with α parameter for blending between the two styles. As shown in the figure above, layers 1−7 are selected from the latent code of the input image, wI,  while layers 8−18 are taken from the sampled vector, wR. This creates multiple outputs with similar coarse and medium features but varying fine features. Loss functions used in Pixel2Style2Pixel Pixel2Style2Pixel encoder uses a weighted combination of three loss functions, first is the pixel-wise L2 loss. Here x denotes the input image and pSp(x) is the encoder network’s output. In addition to this, to learn perceptual similarities, the encoder uses the LPIPS loss. LPIPS loss has been shown to better preserve image quality compared to the more standard perceptual loss. Here F(·) denotes the perceptual feature extractor. Identity preservation between the input and output images is an important aspect of face generation tasks and none of the loss functions are sensitive to the preservation of facial identity. Pixel2Style2Pixel uses a dedicated recognition loss that measures the cosine similarity between the output image and its source to incorporate this objective into the overall loss function. Here R is a pre-trained ArcFace network for face recognition. Combining these three losses we get the total loss function for the encoder. Here λ1, λ2, and λ3 are constants defining the loss weights.

This encoder is based on the Feature Pyramid Network; style feature vectors extracted from different pyramid scales are inserted directly into a fixed, pre-trained StyleGAN generator in correspondence to their spatial scales. Pixel2Style2Pixel can also be applied to other image-to-image translation tasks like- face frontalization,  super-resolution, inpainting, and the fascinating and impressive task of generating images from sketches.
