How to Create a Cartoonizer with TensorFlow Lite?

[Margaret Maynard-Reid]

Hi All,

We are excited to announce that we have published another end-to-end tutorial of How to Create a Cartoonizer with TensorFlow Lite! 

Here’s the link to the tutorial: https://blog.tensorflow.org/2020/09/how-to-create-cartoonizer-with-tf-lite.html

Please retweet / like it on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TensorFlow/status/1303727371841875969

The tutorial covers the following:

• Export model checkpoints as SavedModel with TF 1.x

• Convert the SavedModel to a TFLite model in TF 2.x with different quantization recipes

• Model inference in Python

• Add metadata to the TFLite models

• Benchmark the TFLite models

• Deploy TFLite model to Android in just a few lines of code with ML Model Binding

The Android app uses TensorFlow Lite models converted from the state of art White-box CartoonGAN.

Unlike the Selfie2Anime project, this one does not have the biased data issues which is why we were able to publish the tflite models on TensorFlow Hub.

The models are smaller and faster, and cartoonizes not only the selfies but also other types of images.

It has been an incredible learning and collaboration experience.

Many thanks to the support of the TensorFlow Lite team, TF Hub team, and the ML Kit team; and the ML GDE community for making this happen. 

Thanks to the TensorFlow team for your help publishing it on the official TF blog.

This is part of an ongoing effort writing a series of E2E TFLite tutorials with sample code, and we are looking forward to more upcoming ones!

Best,

Margaret / Sayak

Cheers, Margaret! 

We would really appreciate it if you could quickly try out the models and share the outputs with us over Social Media. All the instructions are available in the blog post.
