Neural Style Representations of Fine Art

Jeremiah Johnson

Abstract: The artistic style of a painting is a subtle aesthetic judgment used by art historians for grouping and classifying artwork. The neural style algorithm introduced by Gatys et. al. (2016) substantially succeeds in image style transfer, the task of merging the style of one image with the content of another. This work investigates the effectiveness of a style representation derived from the neural style algorithm for classifying paintings according to their artistic style.

TL;DR: style representation derived from neural style algorithm for classification of paintings
