Contained Neural Style Transfer for Decorated Logo Generation

Making decorated logos requires image editing skills, without sufficient skills, it could be a time-consuming task. While there are many on-line web services to make new logos, they have limited designs and duplicates can be made. We propose using neural style transfer with clip art and text for the creation of new and genuine logos. We introduce a new loss function based on distance transform of the input image, which allows the preservation of the silhouettes of text and objects. The proposed method contains style transfer to only a designated area. We demonstrate the characteristics of proposed method. Finally, we show the results of logo generation with various input images. Keywords-neural style transfer, logo generation, convolutional neural network
