Algorithm turns any picture into the work of a famous artist

artsconsol.jpg

A group of German researchers have created an algorithm that basically amounts to the most amazing Instagram filter ever conceived: a convolutional neural network that can convert any photograph into a work of fine art. The process takes an hour (sorry, it’s notactually coming to a smartphone near you), and the math behind it is horrendously complicated, but the results speak for themselves.

One thought on “Algorithm turns any picture into the work of a famous artist”

  1. It doesn’t actually use a full i7 core-hour, but it emulates going to Europe during a BFA and changing majors twice, so that’s the kind of fill brushwork you can expect. Better than the loo for selfie BG by perhaps even more than autoawesome.

    In other news, what if you fix brightness (and the gamut colorspace) before you send the input image, I wonder.

    Well then: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1508.06576v1.pdf? I don’t always pdf, but when I do I include 400lpi print samples.

How MediaTek Optimizes SI Design with Cadence Optimality Explorer and Clarity 3D Solver

Sponsored by Cadence Design Systems

In the era of 5G/6G communication, signal integrity (SI) design considerations are important in high-speed interface design. MediaTek’s design process usually relies on human intuition, but with Cadence’s Optimality Intelligent System Explorer and Clarity 3D Solver, they’ve increased design productivity by 75X. The Optimality Explorer’s AI technology not only improves productivity, but also provides helpful insights and answers.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.
