We created a collection of stylized images, using landmark photographs and key art pieces from the 20th century. To do so, we utilized an algorithm based off of the paper "A Neural Algorithm of Artistic Style" by Leon A. Gatys, Alexander S. Ecker, and Matthias Bethge. The algorithm allows us to analyze the stylistic features of any given image using neural networks, and then map those characteristics onto another content image, producing really interesting, unexpected results. Our algorithm was built atop another library fromwork from pervious researchers on image processing.

For our display, we printed our images onto 80 lb paper and trimmed them down to be displayed on a wall for our final exhibit. We also decided to include the original images that went into each final piece, and displayed these alongside each stylized image to clearly demonstrate the effects of the algorithm and the image processing.
