Abstract: The style-based GAN architecture (StyleGAN) yields state-of-the-art results in data-driven unconditional generative image modeling. We expose and analyze several of its characteristic artifacts, and propose changes in both model architecture and training methods to address them. In particular, we redesign generator normalization, revisit progressive growing, and regularize the generator to encourage good conditioning in the mapping from latent vectors to images. In addition to improving image quality, this path length regularizer yields the additional benefit that the generator becomes significantly easier to invert. This makes it possible to reliably detect if an image is generated by a particular network. We furthermore visualize how well the generator utilizes its output resolution, and identify a capacity problem, motivating us to train larger models for additional quality improvements. Overall, our improved model redefines the state of the art in unconditional image modeling, both in terms of existing distribution quality metrics as well as perceived image quality.

- Both Linux and Windows are supported. Linux is recommended for performance and compatibility reasons.
- 64-bit Python 3.6 installation. We recommend Anaconda3 with numpy 1.14.3 or newer.
- TensorFlow 1.14 or 1.15 with GPU support. The code does not support TensorFlow 2.0.
- On Windows, you need to use TensorFlow 1.14 — TensorFlow 1.15 will not work.
- One or more high-end NVIDIA GPUs, NVIDIA drivers, CUDA 10.0 toolkit and cuDNN 7.5. To reproduce the results reported in the paper, you need an NVIDIA GPU with at least 16 GB of DRAM.
- Docker users: use the provided Dockerfile to build an image with the required library dependencies.
StyleGAN2 relies on custom TensorFlow ops that are compiled on the fly using NVCC. To test that your NVCC installation is working correctly, run:
nvcc test_nvcc.cu -o test_nvcc -run
| CPU says hello.
| GPU says hello.On Windows, the compilation requires Microsoft Visual Studio to be in PATH. We recommend installing Visual Studio Community Edition and adding into PATH using "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat".
Datasets are stored as multi-resolution TFRecords, similar to the original StyleGAN. Each dataset consists of multiple *.tfrecords files stored under a common directory, e.g., ~/datasets/ffhq/ffhq-r*.tfrecords. In the following sections, the datasets are referenced using a combination of --dataset and --data-dir arguments, e.g., --dataset=ffhq --data-dir=~/datasets.
FFHQ. To download the Flickr-Faces-HQ dataset as multi-resolution TFRecords, run:
pushd ~
git clone https://github.com/NVlabs/ffhq-dataset.git
cd ffhq-dataset
python download_ffhq.py --tfrecords
popd
python dataset_tool.py display ~/ffhq-dataset/tfrecords/ffhqLSUN. Download the desired LSUN categories in LMDB format from the LSUN project page. To convert the data to multi-resolution TFRecords, run:
python dataset_tool.py create_lsun_wide ~/datasets/car ~/lsun/car_lmdb --width=512 --height=384
python dataset_tool.py create_lsun ~/datasets/cat ~/lsun/cat_lmdb --resolution=256
python dataset_tool.py create_lsun ~/datasets/church ~/lsun/church_outdoor_train_lmdb --resolution=256
python dataset_tool.py create_lsun ~/datasets/horse ~/lsun/horse_lmdb --resolution=256Custom. Create custom datasets by placing all training images under a single directory. The images must be square-shaped and they must all have the same power-of-two dimensions. To convert the images to multi-resolution TFRecords, run:
python dataset_tool.py create_from_images ~/datasets/my-custom-dataset ~/my-custom-images
python dataset_tool.py display ~/datasets/my-custom-datasetPre-trained networks are stored as *.pkl files on the StyleGAN2 Google Drive folder. Below, you can either reference them directly using the syntax gdrive:networks/<filename>.pkl, or download them manually and reference by filename.
Generating images:
# Generate uncurated ffhq images (matches paper Figure 12)
python run_generator.py generate-images --network=gdrive:networks/stylegan2-ffhq-config-f.pkl \
--seeds=6600-6625 --truncation-psi=0.5
# Generate curated ffhq images (matches paper Figure 11)
python run_generator.py generate-images --network=gdrive:networks/stylegan2-ffhq-config-f.pkl \
--seeds=66,230,389,1518 --truncation-psi=1.0
# Generate uncurated car images
python run_generator.py generate-images --network=gdrive:networks/stylegan2-car-config-f.pkl \
--seeds=6000-6025 --truncation-psi=0.5
# Example of style mixing (matches the corresponding video clip)
python run_generator.py style-mixing-example --network=gdrive:networks/stylegan2-ffhq-config-f.pkl \
--row-seeds=85,100,75,458,1500 --col-seeds=55,821,1789,293 --truncation-psi=1.0The results are placed in results/<RUNNING_ID>/*.png. You can change the location with --result-dir. For example, --result-dir=~/my-stylegan2-results.
Projecting images to latent space:
# Project generated images
python run_projector.py project-generated-images --network=gdrive:networks/stylegan2-car-config-f.pkl \
--seeds=0,1,5
# Project real images
python run_projector.py project-real-images --network=gdrive:networks/stylegan2-car-config-f.pkl \
--dataset=car --data-dir=~/datasetsYou can import the networks in your own Python code using pickle.load(). For this to work, you need to include the dnnlib source directory in PYTHONPATH and create a default TensorFlow session by calling dnnlib.tflib.init_tf(). See run_generator.py and pretrained_networks.py for examples.
To reproduce the training runs for config F in Tables 1 and 3, run:
python run_training.py --num-gpus=8 --data-dir=~/datasets --config=config-f \
--dataset=ffhq --mirror-augment=true
python run_training.py --num-gpus=8 --data-dir=~/datasets --config=config-f \
--dataset=car --total-kimg=57000
python run_training.py --num-gpus=8 --data-dir=~/datasets --config=config-f \
--dataset=cat --total-kimg=88000
python run_training.py --num-gpus=8 --data-dir=~/datasets --config=config-f \
--dataset=church --total-kimg 88000 --gamma=100
python run_training.py --num-gpus=8 --data-dir=~/datasets --config=config-f \
--dataset=horse --total-kimg 100000 --gamma=100For other configurations, see python run_training.py --help.
We have verified that the results match the paper when training with 1, 2, 4, or 8 GPUs. Note that training FFHQ at 1024×1024 resolution requires GPU(s) with at least 16 GB of memory. The following table lists typical training times using NVIDIA DGX-1 with 8 Tesla V100 GPUs:
| Configuration | Resolution | Total kimg | 1 GPU | 2 GPUs | 4 GPUs | 8 GPUs | GPU mem |

Training curves for FFHQ config F (StyleGAN2) compared to original StyleGAN using 8 GPUs:
After training, the resulting networks can be used the same way as the official pre-trained networks:

--metrics=fid50k,ppl2_wend --dataset=horseFor other configurations, see the StyleGAN2 Google Drive folder.
Note that the metrics are evaluated using a different random seed each time, so the results will vary between runs. In the paper, we reported the average result of running each metric 10 times. The following table lists the available metrics along with their expected runtimes and random variation:
| Metric | FFHQ config F | 1 GPU | 2 GPUs | 4 GPUs | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
fid50k |
2.84 ± 0.03 | 22 min | 14 min | 10 min | Fréchet Inception Distance |
is50k |
5.13 ± 0.02 | 23 min | 14 min | 8 min | Inception Score |
ppl_zfull |
348.0 ± 3.8 | 41 min | 22 min | 14 min | Perceptual Path Length in Z, full paths |

ppl2_wend |
145.0 ± 0.5 | 41 min | 23 min | 14 min | Perceptual Path Length without center crop |
ls |
154.2 / 4.27 | 10 hrs | 6 hrs | 4 hrs | Linear Separability |
pr50k3 |
0.689 / 0.492 | 26 min | 17 min | 12 min | Precision and Recall |
Note that some of the metrics cache dataset-specific data on the disk, and they will take somewhat longer when run for the first time.
