CycleGAN Monet Painting Generator

You see, I’m Something of a Painter Myself

This project trains a CycleGAN to convert real-world photos into Monet-style paintings using the Kaggle "GAN Getting Started" dataset.

Pipeline

  1. Data Preprocessing – Load, normalize, and batch images.
  2. Model Architecture – CycleGAN with:
    • Generator: Photo → Monet
    • Discriminator: Monet vs. Fake Monet
  3. Training – Adversarial & cycle-consistency losses.
  4. Results – Generate Monet-style images from real photos.

Usage

  • Run cycleGAN_monet_project_fixed.ipynb in Jupyter Notebook.
  • Generates Monet-style images and saves them in /images/.

Future Improvements

  • Longer training for better details.
  • Improved hyperparameter tuning.
  • Perceptual loss for texture enhancement.
