Data collection of toy horses and zebras for multi-modal image synthesis

Motivated by building a live demonstration of horse-to-zebra synthesis, we created our own dataset consisting of images of different toy horses and zebras. We used a wide variety of backgrounds, camera angles and lighting settings. In addition, images were also created in which the toy animals were held in the hand to better demonstrate synthesis in front of the camera. 

Besides the raw image and video footage, we prepared different compilations of data in form of datasets.

Following the horse-to-zebra synthesis by Zhu et al. in the paper "Unpaired Image-to-Image Translation using Cycle-Consistent Adversarial Networks", we partially adopted the horse2zebra dataset from real horses and zebras in our datasets.
