Artificial intelligence can 'paint' paintings like Van Gogh and Picasso

Scientists have just announced a form of 'artificial intelligence' that can simulate the artistic style of any artist in the world.

The invention may 'revive' Van Gogh and Picasso

Painters like Van Gogh and Picasso left great treasures of art. But because of that, their deaths have left a huge loss to humanity.

Recently, however, scientists have announced a form of ' artificial intelligence' (Artificial Intelligence) containing algorithms that can simulate the artistic style of artists . Thereby, this invention is expected to be 'revived' not only for Picasso, Van Gogh, but for any artist in the world.

Accordingly, this type of artificial intelligence can be learned in the style of painters, then it is possible to draw brand new paintings in that style.

Researchers at the University of Tübingen (Germany) said: 'In art, especially painting, artists have the ability to create unique visual experiences by combining the content of transmission. , and their artistic style. So far, no algorithm has been able to determine this. '

However, based on Google's 'Deep Neural Networks' biological image recognition system, researchers have developed a system capable of creating high-quality artistic images. Accordingly: 'The system can split and combine the content and style of the painting, then create an algorithm to simulate that art style'.

The new system allows to simulate the style of JMW Turner in "Shipwreck of the Minotaur"

Experts say the software will rely on information from the picture, analyze and emphasize its unique characteristics, and then create another picture.

The system is still encountering some problems, which is not being able to do exactly what is ordered. For example, when ordering the system to analyze the painting 'Scream ' of Edvard Munch, the result can be given out . a dog.

In the future, however, scientists believe that this software can help us to ' revive' the artistic ability of genius artists in history.
