ArtCoder: An End-to-End Method for Generating Scanning-Robust Stylized QR Codes

Figure 1: (a) Traditional QR code. (b) Samples of our stylized QR codes. These codes combine the visual effect of stylization and the functionality of QR codes, which are personalized, attractive, and scanning-robust. (c) Finder and alignment patterns are used to determine a QR code's location and angle, thus we preserve their traditional appearances.
