Image Style Transfer and Content-Style Disentanglement

We propose a way of learning disentangled content-style representation of image, allowing us to extrapolate images to any style as well as interpolate between any pair of styles. By augmenting data set in a supervised setting and imposing triplet loss, we ensure the separation of information encoded by content and style representation. We also make use of cycle-consistency loss to guarantee that images could be reconstructed faithfully by their representation.

Video Content Swapping Using GAN

Video generation is an interesting problem in computer vision. It is quite popular for data augmentation, special effect in move, AR/VR and so on. With the advances of deep learning, many deep generative models have been proposed to solve this task. These deep generative models provide away to utilize all the unlabeled images and videos online, since it can learn deep feature representations with unsupervised manner. These models can also generate different kinds of images, which have great value for visual application. However generating a video would be much more challenging since we need to model not only the appearances of objects in the video but also their temporal motion. In this work, we will break down any frame in the video into content and pose. We first extract the pose information from a video using a pre-trained human pose detection and use a generative model to synthesize the video based on the content code and pose code.

ChemBO: Bayesian Optimization of Small Organic Molecules with Synthesizable Recommendations

In applications such as molecule design or drug discovery, it is desirable to have an algorithm which recommends new candidate molecules based on the results of past tests. These molecules first need to be synthesized and then tested for objective properties. We describe ChemBO, a Bayesian optimization framework for generating and optimizing organic molecules for desired molecular properties. While most existing data-driven methods for this problem do not account for sample efficiency or fail to enforce realistic constraints on synthesizability, our approach explores the synthesis graph in a sample-efficient way and produces synthesizable candidates. We implement ChemBO as a Gaussian process model and explore existing molecular kernels for it. Moreover, we propose a novel optimal-transport based distance and kernel that accounts for graphical information explicitly. In our experiments, we demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach on several molecular optimization problems.
