In tests of Deep Dreamer carried out by MailOnline, Kendall Jenner’s hair in an Instagram photo was transformed. Mr Counsell continued: ‘The best part of using Deep Dreamer is processing your own images and seeing what the deepdream engine uncovers in them.’ Once the software leaves beta it will cost £16 ($24.99) That modified picture is then fed back into the network, which is again tasked to recognise features and emphasise them, and so on.Įventually, the feedback loop modifies the picture beyond all recognition. Other images were created by feeding a picture into the network and then asking the software to recognise a feature of it, and modify the picture to emphasise the feature it recognises - such as animals and eyes. In doing this, the software builds up a idea of what it thinks an object looked like. The network's 'answer' comes from this final output layer. The network typically consists of 10 to 30 stacked layers of artificial neurons and each image is fed into the input layer, which then talks to the next layer, until eventually the 'output' layer is reached. Google trains an artificial neural network by showing it millions of training examples and gradually adjusting the network parameters until it gives the classifications the team want. They showcased what the systems ‘see’ and what happens when the software gets it wrong.

Google revealed images of how its artificial neural networks learn to recognise images last month.

DEEP DREAMER SERIES
Any photo or GIF can be dragged into the tool, or opened from the File menu, and a series of tools lets users tweak how the finished photo, or ‘dream’ will look.

DEEP DREAMER MAC
‘We were blown away by the images it produced over the past couple of weeks we've put together an easy-to-use Mac app that allows you to make your own deepdream images. ‘A few weeks ago Google announced its research into neural networks and image processing. Realmac Software was founded by Dan Counsell in 2002. Once the refinements have been selected, users click ‘Start dreaming’ and the image begins to change on the screen.Ī progress bar sits at the top and a notification is sent when the ‘dream has finished’.

The number of ‘dreams’ and iterations can be tweaked to dig deeper into the image and Google’s code, resulting in more obscure and surreal images. These range from an impressionist painting style, to looking for eyes, animals and a dream described simply as ‘trippy’.
