DeepWear

We present DeepWear, a method using deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (DCGANs) for clothes design. Deep neural networks (DNNs) learn the feature of specific brand clothes and generate images, then patterns instructed from the images are made, and an author creates clothes based on that. We evaluated this system by evaluating the credibility of the actual sold clothes on market with our clothes. As the result, we found it is possible to make clothes look like actual products from the generated images. Our findings have implications for collaborative design between machine and human intelligence.

本研究では, 衣服設計のために深層畳込み生成的対立ネットワーク(DCGANs)を使用する方法であるDeepWearを提案する. 深層学習により特定のブランドの服の特徴を学習させて画像を生成し, その生成画像を指示元としてパタンナーに服の型紙を描いてもらい, 服を作った. 実際に販売されたブランド服と比較することによって, このシステムの信頼性を評価した. 結果として, 生成画像から実際の製品のように服を作ることが可能であることがわかり,機械と人間の知性の間の協調設計に示唆を与えると考えている.
