        Another interesting thing: the figure 8 psi interpolation. 0/middle=global mean - a brown-eyed brown-haired girl. Fair enough. 1 vs -1 are opposites. What's the opposite of gray eyes/short brown hair? red eyes/long purple hair, apparently. red eyes/long red? yellow/short blue.pic.twitter.com/9HStf2Jmoy

        Expanding psi to make the transitions clearer: psi=[1, 0.7, 0.5, 0.4, 0.2, 0.1, 0, -0.1, -0.2, -0.4, -0.5, -0.7, -1]. (Head pose reversal/negation is particularly obvious with this version.)pic.twitter.com/8ymUpp8DW9

        I'm really enjoying these finetuning runs: taking the full face-corpus StyleGAN model and retraining it on just a specific character's corpus. Here's 2.5h (~5 epoches) of retraining on just Holo faces.pic.twitter.com/ubuVDgWd7D

        If 1-2h is enough to finetune on a character, what happens if you run for 7+ hours? Overfitting? No - it gets better *and* worse: eg it's picked up more global structure like eating apples (!) but at the cost of horrible noise artifacts (???). I have no explanation for this.pic.twitter.com/L5MtxQqcRV

        I say they're bad but many are legitimately cool or interesting. Setting psi=1.2 just makes the quality range huge... eg these 4 are striking. (BTW @EvaMonkey have you been looking at any of these Asuka samples? So lulzy.)pic.twitter.com/BH8MPe9Sn7

        An experimental run of StyleGAN on the full Danbooru2018 SFW 512px image corpus is pretty trippy-looking so far. Wonder if the initialization from the faces StyleGAN is why it looks so Boschian...pic.twitter.com/o0BNTceakz

        People keep asking about reversing StyleGAN to control/generate variants on an existing natural image. This right now seems to be the best thing available:https://www.reddit.com/r/MachineLearning/comments/aq6jxf/p_stylegan_encoder_from_real_images_to_latent/ …

        Looks like someone's hooked up StyleGAN to latent-variable classifiers, allowing interactive control of the visual attributes of each face: https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimeResearch/comments/asl4gw/fully_custom_waifu/ … OP's not answering any questions, though. Anyone know where this comes from? Not finding anything in Google.

        Some of them I look at and think wow this looks like an image of a high quality anime. Then I look closer at the image and the shoulders are messed up.

        Replying to @realmforge @frostinmay

        Yes, both ProGAN and StyleGAN struggle with the edges and background because they're obscured and highly-varied. The faces are always in clear focus in the foreground, ofc. I imagine shoulders should get better toward the end - not even at 512px yet!
