Data Science and Machine Learning (Theory and Projects) A to Z - Neural Style Transfer: Problem Setup

The video tutorial explains neural style transfer, a technique using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to blend content and style from two images into a new image. It covers the problem setup, defining content and style cost functions, and using pre-trained models. The tutorial details the algorithm, including random initialization, gradient descent, and the use of middle layers for feature extraction. It also explains calculating content and style costs, focusing on cross correlation for style cost. Finally, it demonstrates implementing neural style transfer using TensorFlow Hub.
