How to use the pre-trained model to generate images from specific captions?
For example, how can I generate an image that is corresponding to the caption "a person skateboarding in the street with some people looking on"?
Could you please upload the code you use to get the images presented in your paper? Thanks!
Hi, the easiest way of doing this is to go through the captions in the validation set (captions.pickle) until you find the sentence for which you want to generate images. If you load the captions the same way as the dataloader does you can iterate through them directly until you find the correct caption.
cap = captions[0].data.cpu().numpy() sentence = "" for j in range(len(cap)): if cap[j] == 0: break word = self.ixtoword[cap[j]].encode('ascii', 'ignore').decode('ascii') sentence += word + " "
Hi, thanks for your response. Can I generate image from my own sentences in the same way?
Hi, have a look at how they do it in the original AttnGAN here: https://github.com/taoxugit/AttnGAN/blob/0d000e652b407e976cb88fab299e8566f3de8a37/code/main.py#L146 You can use it in the same way for our model since we use the same text encoder. You'll need to provide the bounding boxes and object labels for our model though, or use another network that predicts these from the caption.
Hello,
Thanks for the code. Do you have any pointers where could I find such a model which gives bounding box and labels from caption? For bounding box I got this from other Issue: https://github.com/jamesli1618/Obj-GAN/, but not able to find for labels?
Thanks.
I haven't used it personally, but something like LayoutVAE or Seq-SG2SL and their related work should help with this (I don't know which papers have available implementations, so you might have to check the related work of these papers, too.
Hi both the papers ( LayoutVAE or Seq-SG2SL) you had mentioned doesnt have the code.Can you please suggest how to get bounding box (semantic layout) from the caption.
Hi, you can use the code from https://github.com/jamesli1618/Obj-GAN/ to get bounding boxes + object labels from the captions. They have a model pretrained on COCO, which should be a good starting point for most settings.
Hi I checked this code https://github.com/jamesli1618/Obj-GAN/tree/master/box_generation/bbox_proc , which is mentioned to extract the bound-box info .I am checking on this. Thanks
Hi Tobias, would like to know whether u checked the bbox_proc code for boundary box generation. I have raised a query in the obj-GAN repo https://github.com/jamesli1618/Obj-GAN/issues/24. It would be great if you can help me with a sample code to generate a file similar to 'input_val2014.txt', so that i can use the semantic object model
