Picture that Sketch: Photorealistic Image Generation from Abstract Sketches

Edgemap Sketch Sketch Sketch Sketch Sketch Existing Methods Proposed Method Figure 1. (a) Set of photos generated by the proposed method. (b) While existing methods can generate faithful photos from perfectly pixel-aligned edgemaps, they fall short drastically in case of highly deformed and sparse free-hand sketches. In contrast, our autoregressive sketch-to-photo generation model produces highly photorealistic outputs from highly abstract sketches.
