Train model backwards to make photos subtly stylize photographs
From 1 comment
Maybe train it 'backwards'? I mean take a painting [1] as the input and perturb it with a photographic image toward photo realism. [2] [1]: Assumptions about the 'quantity of…

Check out the Prisma app which has been doing this style of image processing using machine-learning for awhile now. The results of Prisma can sometimes yield mind-blowingly…
