Thus far the algorithmic basis of this process isunknown and there exists no artificial system with similar capabilities. How-ever, in other key areas of visual perception such as object and face recognitionnear-human performance was recently demonstrated by a class of biologicallyinspired vision models called Deep Neural Networks.1,2 Here we introduce anartificial system based on a Deep Neural Network that creates artistic imagesof high perceptual quality. The system uses neural representations to sepa-rate and recombine content and style of arbitrary images, providing a neuralalgorithm for the creation of artistic images. Moreover, in light of the strik-ing similarities between performance-optimised artificial neural networks andbiological vision,3–7 our work offers a path forward to an algorithmic under-standing of how humans create and perceive artistic imagery.1arXiv:1508.06576v2 [cs.CV] 2 Sep 2015The class of Deep Neural Networks that are most powerful in image processing tasks arecalled C...
