Python implementation of Deep Dream algorithm

PyDeepDream

Deep Dream is an algorithm that makes an pattern detection algorithm over-interpret patterns. The Deep Dream algorithm is a modified neural network. Instead of identifying objects in an input image, it changes the image into the direction of its training data set, which produces impressive surrealistic, dream-like images. (read the original Google blog https://research.googleblog.com/2015/06/inceptionism-going-deeper-into-neural.html)

The result are beautiful hallucinations like the one below. The neural network amplified the perceived objects that it is being trained to recognized.

Deep Dream Python Script

Deep Dream Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeepDream

Install Deep Dream Script

You can find the original code at GitHub repository: https://github.com/google/deepdream/blob/master/dream.ipynb

git clone https://github.com/PyDeepDream

Then install of the Deep Dream script's dependencies from requirements.txt list

conda install --yes --file requirements.txt

cd PyDeepDream
python deepdream.py --help

Install the GoogLeNet Caffe pre-trained model

cd PyDeepDream
mkdir models
cd models

download from http://dl.caffe.berkeleyvision.org/bvlc_googlenet.caffemodel (~54 MB) and save the model here at models/bvlc_googlenet.caffemodel. The deepdream.py assumes it can find the model there.

How to Use

Use -i to specify your input content image. It will deep dream at a random layer.

python deepdream.py -i {your_image}.jpg

If you want to start Deep Dream at a layer depth, type and octave manually:

python deepdream.py -d 1 -t 1 -o 6 -i Style_StarryNight.jpg

Running All Layers Experiment

We are using -d to define which layer that we shall perform the Deep Dream. The level number will be mapped to a GoogLeNet layer name.

# Level 1 - inception_3a_1x1
python deepdream.py -d 1 -t 1 -o 6 -i Style_StarryNight.jpg

# Level 2 - inception_3b_1x1
python deepdream.py -d 2 -t 1 -o 6 -i Style_StarryNight.jpg

# Level 3 - inception_4a_1x1
python deepdream.py -d 3 -t 1 -o 6 -i Style_StarryNight.jpg

# Level 5 - inception_4c_1x1
python deepdream.py -d 5 -t 1 -o 6 -i Style_StarryNight.jpg

# Level 7 - inception_4e_1x1
python deepdream.py -d 7 -t 1 -o 6 -i Style_StarryNight.jpg

# Level 9 - inception_5b_1x1
python deepdream.py -d 9 -t 1 -o 6 -i Style_StarryNight.jpg

The output dream images are stored with the original photo and tagged with a inception layer name. For example, Style_StarryNight.jpg with -d 1 will produce the Deep Dream result Style_StrarryNight_inception_3a_1x1_dream.jpg.
