Abstract
- Automatic generation of calligraphy fonts has attracted broad attention of researchers. However, previous font generation research mainly focused on the known font style imitation based on image to image translation. For poor interpretability, it is hard for deep learning to create new fonts with various font styles and features according to human understanding. To address this issue, the font fusion network based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) and disentangled representation learning is proposed in this paper to generate brand new fonts. It separates font into two understandable disentangled features: stroke style and skeleton shape. According to personal preferences, various new fonts with multiple styles can be generated by fusing the stroke style and skeleton shape of different fonts. First, this task improves the interpretability of deep learning, and is more challenging than simply imitating font styles. Second, considering the robustness of the network, a fuzzy supervised learning skill is proposed to enhance the stability of the fusion of two fonts with considerable discrepancy. Finally, instead of retraining, the authors' trained model can be quickly transferred to other font fusion samples. It improves the efficiency of the model. Qualitative and quantitative results demonstrate that the proposed method is capable of efficiently and stably generating the new font images with multiple styles. The source code and the implementation details of our model are available at https://github.com/Qinmengxi/Fontfusion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
