What happens is the program will find the features that looks even the tiniest bit dog-like and it will make them more and more doglike, making doglike faces everywhere.Įven if you feed it white noise, it will amplify the slightest most minuscule resemblance to a dog into serious dog faces. Now what if you take that program, and change it so that when it finds a dog-like feature, it changes the dog-like image to be even more dog-like? Then what happens if you feed the output image back in? The program will find whatever looks closest to a dog, and since it has been told there must be a dog in there somewhere, it tells you that is the dog.

So if you provide it with the image of a dog and tell it to recognize the image, it will compare the image to it's references, find out that there are similarities in the image to images of dogs, and it will tell you "there's a dog in that image!"īut what if you use that software to make a program that looks for dogs in images, and then you give it an image with no dog in and tell it that there is a dog in the image? The image recognition software has thousands of reference images of known things, which it compares to an image it is trying to recognise. The network typically consists of 10-30 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.Ok, so google has image recognition software that is used to determine what is in an image. The team has even given the images a name - Inceptionism.

Microsoft’s iconic landscape wallpaper has what looks like hippos hidden in the foreground, a chicken in the bottom right-hand corner, dogs in the clouds and even frog-like shapes and sheep in the sky.įreaky: Pablo Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d’Avignon is transformed into a warped world full of hidden faces of animals The shot, which recently became the most-liked shot on the site, become freaky-looking eyes.Īnd the face of Mona Lisa is transformed into puppies and even a sloth.Įlsewhere, the software can turn the bright lights of New York’s Times Square into a gentile impressionist-style landscape. 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. ‘Give Deep Dreamer a photo and watch as horizons get filled with towers and pagodas.

‘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’.

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.
