Shanshui-DaDA: An Interactive, Generative Approach to Chinese Shanshui Painting

Research output: Chapter in Book or Report/Conference proceedingConference Proceedingpeer-review

Abstract

“Shanshui” literally means “mountain and water”, is an East Asian traditional type of brush painting involves natural landscape. In this paper, we propose an interactive and generative system based on Generative Adversarial Network(GAN), which helps user draw "Shanshui" easily. We name this system and installation “ShanshuiDaDA”. “Shanshui-DaDA” is trained with “CycleGAN” and wrapped with a
web-based interface. When participants scribble lines and sketch the landscape, the “Shanshui-DaDA” will assist them to generate/create a Chinese "Shanshui" painting in real-time.
