### 🖼️ Image stylization 🖼️

[](#️-image-stylization-️)

Apply the style of one image to another image. #### Example

[](#example)

[![Shows mona lisa and a comic character which combined result in a third image of mona lisa in the style of the comic character](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/funcai/funcai-php/main/.github/img/php-ai-image-stylization.jpg)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/funcai/funcai-php/main/.github/img/php-ai-image-stylization.jpg)

#### Use it for:

[](#use-it-for)

- Generating artistic versions of user provided images
- Ensuring a consistent style of cover images
- For anonymizing avatars

#### Credits

[](#credits)

- [The Tensorflow model](https://tfhub.dev/google/magenta/arbitrary-image-stylization-v1-256/2)
- [The Paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/1705.06830)

### 🏷️ Image classification 🏷️

[](#️-image-classification-️)

Find out what's in an image. Returns the top 5 classes out of a list of 21.825 classes. #### Example

[](#example-1)

[![An image of a butterfly and 5 matching labels next to it](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/funcai/funcai-php/main/.github/img/php-ai-image-classification.jpg)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/funcai/funcai-php/main/.github/img/php-ai-image-classification.jpg)

#### Use it for:

[](#use-it-for-1)

- Making your images searchable by content
- Automatically generating image names or alt attributes
- Grouping your images by content

### Future applications

[](#future-applications)

- **Image recognition** - Get a label for a given image (in progress)
- **Image upscaling** - Increase the size of your images (in progress)
- **Sentiment analysis** - Find out if a user generated text is positive or negative (in progress)
- **Time series forecasting** - Predict what will happen in the future based on past events (planned)
- **Text summary** - Generate a summary from a given text (in progress)
- **Translation** - Translate your text from one language to another (planned, , , )

If you have a usecase that's not listed above, please create an [issue](https://github.com/funcai/funcai-php/issues/new) and explain what you would like to do.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- **Runs everywhere** - You only need PHP, **nothing else**
- **Super simple API** - No machine learning knowledge required
- **Many applications** - Wide range of machine learning applications ready to use

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

#### 1. Install the package via [composer](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#installation-linux-unix-macos):

[](#1-install-the-package-via-composer)

```
composer require funcai/funcai-php

```

#### 2. Download the tensorflow library:

[](#2-download-the-tensorflow-library)

```
php vendor/funcai/funcai-php/install.php

```

This downloads tensorflow to `./tensorflow`.

#### 3. Download a model

[](#3-download-a-model)

```
php vendor/funcai/funcai-php/install-stylization.php

```

This downloads the stylization model to `./models`

#### 4. Configure the models folder

[](#4-configure-the-models-folder)

You will need to move the models folder to a permanent location. For example, move it to `/var/www/models` on your server. In that case make sure to set the base path accordingly:

```
\FuncAI\Config::setModelBasePath('/var/www/models');

```

You can also move the folder directly into your project and check them into git, but the folder might get quite big (100 Mb up to multiple Gb).

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

After you've completed the installation steps you can run your first prediction:

```
\FuncAI\Config::setLibPath('./tensorflow/'); // This should point to the path from step 2
\FuncAI\Config::setModelBasePath('./models'); // This should point to the path from step 4
$model = new \FuncAI\Models\Stylization();
$model->predict([
__DIR__ . '/sample_data/prince-akachi.jpg',
__DIR__ . '/sample_data/style.jpg',
]);

```

This will output the stylized image to `./out.jpg`.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP >= 7.4 on Linux

### About machine learning

[](#about-machine-learning)

todo

- Pick the correct tasks (easy for computer, hard / repetitive for humans)
- Responsibility ([https://www.tensorflow.org/responsible\_ai](https://www.tensorflow.org/responsible_ai))
- Uncertainty
- Specific tasks

### How to run the docker file

[](#how-to-run-the-docker-file)

- Run `docker-compose up -d`
- Run `docker-compose exec app bash`
- Run `php example.php`

### Architecture

[](#architecture)

- Uses [FFI](https://www.php.net/manual/en/class.ffi.php) to talk to tensorflow for predictions
- Uses a custom written c++ program for training (in progress)
- Currently runs on linux with CPU support

### Todo

[](#todo)

- Fix path of libtensorflow.so in tf\_singlefile.h
- Find a better way to download/host models
- Check for memory leaks

### Development

[](#development)

#### Docker (optional, but recommended)

[](#docker-optional-but-recommended)

Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/).

#### Download the efficientnet model

[](#download-the-efficientnet-model)

To be able to run the example file you need to run the following docker command which will download the efficientnet model and save it in the correct file format:

```
docker run -it --rm -v $PWD:/code -w /code tensorflow/tensorflow:2.3.0 python scripts/generate/efficientnet.py

```

Alternatively, if you already have python3 installed you can directly run:

```
pip3 install tensorflow
python3 scripts/generate/efficientnet.py

```

#### Run the provided Docker container (optional)

[](#run-the-provided-docker-container-optional)

To start the provided Docker container which provides you with a working php7.4 installation run:

```
docker-compose up -d

```

Afterwards run:

```
docker-compose exec app bash

```

to get a Terminal inside of the docker container.

Alternatively you can setup a PHP 7.4 environment locally and use that.

#### Better phpstorm support (optional)

[](#better-phpstorm-support-optional)

Go to your settings and open "Languages & Frameworks -> PHP -> PHP Runtime -> Others". Make sure "FFI" is checked.
