Hello there. I’m Rishabh Dahale. When writing this post, I’m a final year undergraduate student at the Department of Electrical Engineering at IIT Bombay. I’m pursuing a Dual Degree program with a specialization in Communication and Signal Processing. For my final year thesis project, I’m working under Prof. Preeti Rao on Automatic-Music Generation using Reinforcement Learning. Through this blog, I intend to share my projects and, at times, some other interesting research papers and topics I come across. You can fork the original repo from this link.

This is a short post linked to a colab notebook with image style transfer using neural network code. This is because if you check one of my picture here, you will notice it’s edited. The catch is that I didn’t apply the filter on my own or use very sophisticated software like adobe lightroom or anything for it. Instead, I simply gave my image and another image whose style I wanted on my picture to a neural network. More specifically, I have used the method proposed in this paper. You can find the code for this implementation in this github repo. Some might say it’s a bit old method for 2021, and more robust methods are published, so why not use them. Well, I implemented this about 2 years ago and had the code with me. And moreover, I use google colab for running such intensive operations. Newer methods would surely give better results but with added time cost.

This is the link to the colab notebook for the same if you want to run it. You will have to copy the notebook before running it, as I have shared the view-only version.

Can’t wait to share my thoughts through this blog!
