Deep generative models are effective in style transfer. Previous methods learn one or several specific artist-style from a collection of artworks. These not only homogenize the different artworks same artist but also lack generalization for unseen artists. To solve these challenges, we propose double-style transferring module (DSTM). It extracts and artwork-style (even untrained) preserves intrinsic diversity between artist. DSTM swaps two styles adversarial training encourages realistic...
