CartoonGAN (PyTorch)
This is a modified version of Yijunmaverick's implementation of CartoonGAN [Chen et al., CVPR18]. This repo was created due to lack of activity in original repo.
This model is normally used for poster POCs and Blender3D->2D background tests and pre-processing, more like a Photoshop filter for visualising characters with the background before post-processing with light rays, additional shadows, among others.
