We propose a new neural network architecture for solving single-image analogies-the generation of an entire set of stylistically similar images from just a single input image. Solving this problem requires separating image style from content. Our network is a modified variational autoencoder (VAE) that supports supervised training of singleimage analogies and in-network evaluation of outputs with a structured similarity objective that captures pixel covariances. On the challenging task of generating a 62-letter font from a single example letter we produce images with 22.4% lower dissimilarity to the ground truth than state-of-the-art.
REF considered glyph image synthesis as an image analogy task and proposed a modified VAE to separate image style from content.
