Abstract: In order to solve the problem of poor diversity of the generated images in the traditional image style conversion algorithm, this paper proposes a network model based on EBGAN (Energy-Based Generative Adversarial Net). The idea of energy function is introduced into the discriminator, and the Autoencoder is designed to generate different reconstruction results for the true and false input respectively. The error value before and after the reconstruction of the input image is calculated, which is used as the energy concept to identify the input image. In the coding stage of Autoencoder, the orthogonal control is introduced in to the encoded vectors to control the maximum orthogonalization of two vectors in the same batch, so as to promote the generator net to generate images in different directions. Experiments on Facades and Cityscapes datasets show that the proposed network model can effectively achieve process of image stylization and generate more diversified images than the traditional network model.
