This demo application demonstrates an example of using neural networks to synthesize a photo-realistic image based on an exemplar image.
On startup the demo application reads command line parameters and loads a network to the Inference Engine plugin. To get the result, the demo performs the following steps:
- Reading input data (semantic segmentation mask of image for translation, exemplar image and mask of exemplar image).
- Preprocessing for input image and masks.
- Network inference (segmentation network (optional) + translation network).
- Save results to folder.
For demo input image or video files, refer to the section Media Files Available for Demos in the Open Model Zoo Demos Overview.
The list of models supported by the demo is in <omz_dir>/demos/image_translation_demo/python/models.lst
file.
This file can be used as a parameter for Model Downloader and Converter to download and, if necessary, convert models to OpenVINO Inference Engine format (*.xml + *.bin).
An example of using the Model Downloader:
omz_downloader --list models.lst
An example of using the Model Converter:
omz_converter --list models.lst
- cocosnet
- hrnet-v2-c1-segmentation
NOTE: Refer to the tables Intel's Pre-Trained Models Device Support and Public Pre-Trained Models Device Support for the details on models inference support at different devices.
Running the application with the -h

Running the application with the empty list of options yields the usage message given above and an error message.
There are two ways to use this demo:
-
Run with segmentation model in addition to translation model. You should use only models trained on ADE20k dataset. Example: hrnet-v2-c1-segmentation. In this case only input and reference images are required without any masks. Segmentation masks will be generated via segmentation model.
You can use the following command to run demo on CPU using cocosnet and hrnet-v2-c1-segmentation models:
python3 image_translation_demo.py \ -d CPU \ -m_trn <path_to_translation_model>/cocosnet.xml \ -m_seg <path_to_segmentation_model>/hrnet-v2-c1-segmentation.xml \ -ii <path_to_input_image>/input_image.jpg \ -ri <path_to_exemplar_image>/reference_image.jpg \ -o <output_dir>
-
Run with only translation model. You can use the following command to run demo on CPU using cocosnet as translation model:
python3 image_translation_demo.py \ -d CPU \ -m_trn <path_to_translation_model>/cocosnet.xml \ -is <path_to_semantic_mask_of_image>/input_mask.png \ -ri <path_to_exemplar_image>/reference_image.jpg \ -rs <path_to_exemplar_semantic>/reference_mask.png \ -o <output_dir>
NOTE: For segmentation masks you should use mask (with shape: [height x width]) that specifies class for each pixel. Number of classes is 151 (from ADE20k), where '0' - background class.
The results of the demo processing are saved to a folder that is specified by the parameter output_dir
.
