“StyleGAN of All Trades: Image Manipulation With Only Pretrained StyleGAN”, Min Jin Chong, Hsin-Ying Lee, David Forsyth2021-11-02 (; similar)⁠:

Recently, StyleGAN has enabled various image manipulation and editing tasks thanks to the high-quality generation and the disentangled latent space.

However, additional architectures or task-specific training paradigms are usually required for different tasks. In this work, we take a deeper look at the spatial properties of StyleGAN.

We show that with a pretrained StyleGAN along with some operations, without any additional architecture, we can perform comparably to the state-of-the-art methods on various tasks, including image blending, panorama generation, generation from a single image, controllable and local multimodal image to image translation, and attributes transfer.

The proposed method is simple, effective, efficient, and applicable to any existing pretrained StyleGAN model.
