Abstract
In this work, we introduce a practical system which synthesizes an appealing image from natural language descriptions such that the generated image should maintain the aesthetic level of photographs. Our proposed method takes the text from the end-users via a user-friendly interface and produces a set of different label maps via the primary generator PG. Then, choosing a subset from the label maps set is performed through the primary aesthetic appreciation PAA. Next, our subset of label maps is fed into the accessory generator AG, which is the state-of-the-art image-to-image translation. Last but not least, our subset of generated images is ranked via the accessory aesthetic appreciation AAA, and the most appealing image is produced.
