DyNCA: Real-time Dynamic Texture Synthesis Using Neural Cellular Automata

Sabine Süsstrunk, Tong Zhang, Ehsan Pajouheshgar, Yitao Xu

Current Dynamic Texture Synthesis (DyTS) models can synthesize realistic videos. However, they require a slow iterative optimization process to synthesize a single fixed-size short video, and they do not offer any post-training control over the synthesis p ...
