🌈 Motivation : To give pleasure to friends

FUN is the best! It's always thrilling.

📝 Dataset : Korean Celebrities

Since the purpose of the project was to give pleasure to my friends, I needed a model that was appropriate to Koreans. So I collected Korean Celebrities Images as Dataset. I crawled images with Selenium and used Face Recognition to crop the face in the images.

Man : 3667 Images

Woman : 4272 Images

🔧 Training

1. Install Repository

You can install this repository using git clone

git clone https://github.com/myoons/CycleGAN-Gender-Changer.git

2. Setup Dataset

Download the dataset from Google Drive
Then build the dataset by setting up the following the directory structure.

├── datasets
|   ├── <dataset_name>         # i.e. genderchange
|   |   ├── train              # Training
|   |   |   ├── A              # Contains domain A images (i.e. Man)
|   |   |   └── B              # Contains domain B images (i.e. Woman)
|   |   └── test               # Testing
|   |   |   ├── A              # Contains domain A images (i.e. Man)
|   |   |   └── B              # Contains domain B images (i.e. Woman)

3. Train!

python train.py --dataroot datasets/<dataset_name> --cuda

This command will start a training session using the images under the dataroot/train directory with the hyperparameters that showed best results according to CycleGAN authors.

If you don't own a GPU remove the --cuda option, although I advise you to get one!

📟 Tensorboard

tensorboard --logdir ./logs

You can watch your experiments' progress by runing tensorboard
