Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. An image generation system for unsupervised cross-domain image generation relative to a first image domain and a second image domain, the image generation system comprising:
a processor, and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the system to:
receive a 3D CAD (computer aided design) model comprising 3D model images of a target object;
based on the 3D CAD model of the target object, generate a plurality of augmented CAD models of the target object comprising a plurality of data sets, each data set respectively corresponding to an associated one of a plurality of attribute classes, each data set comprising a plurality of 2D model images;
input the plurality of data sets into a generative adversarial network comprising a plurality of generators respectively corresponding to the plurality of attribute classes and a plurality of discriminators respectively corresponding to the plurality of generators;
generate synthetic photorealistic images of the target object using the plurality of generators, the synthetic photorealistic images including attributes in accordance with the plurality of data sets corresponding to the plurality of attribute classes; and
output the synthetic photorealistic images of the target object, wherein

the plurality of attribute classes includes an anomaly class; and
the processor is configured to generate the plurality of augmented CAD models by adding various anomalies into the 3D CAD model augmented in accordance with anomaly instructions.
