| Abstract |
Domain mapping aims to estimate a sophisticated mapping between source and target domains. Finding the specialized attribute in latent representation plays a key role to attain a desirable performance. However, the entangled features usually contain the mixed attribute which can not be easily decomposed in an unsupervised manner. To handle the mixed features for better generation, this paper presents an attribute decomposition based on the sequence data and carries out the flow-based image domain mapping. The latent variables, characterized by flow model, are decomposed into the attribute-relevant and attribute-irrelevant components. The decomposition is guided by multiple objectives including structural-perceptual loss, cycle consistency loss, sequential random-pair reconstruction loss and sequential classification loss where the paired training data for domain mapping are not required. Importantly, the sequential random-pair reconstruction loss is formulated by means of exchanging the attribute-relevant components within a sequence of images. As a result, the source images with the attributes of reference images can be smoothly transferred to the corresponding target images. Experiments on talking face synthesis show the merit of attribute decomposition in domain mapping. |
