Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for film-making using style transfer. One of the methods includes receiving an initial video comprising a sequence of initial video frames; receiving a selection of style images; for each initial video frame in the sequence of initial video frames, processing the initial video frame to generate a final video frame, the processing comprising: segmenting the initial video frame to generate a segmented video frame; generating a plurality of stylized video frames each according to a respective one of the style images; and generating a final video frame comprising, for each segment of the segmented video frame: determining a stylized video frame, extracting the respective segment from the determined stylized video frame, and inserting the extracted segment into the final video frame; and combining each generated final video frame in sequence to generate the final video.

Abstract: The invention provides for a dual-formula catalyst composition for maintaining a haircut. The composition comprises: a first formula, and a second formula, wherein at least one of the first formula or the second formula comprises at least two polymers. Each of the polymers may be selected from the group consisting of cationic polymers, anionic polymers, zwitterionic or bimodal polymers and neutral polymers. A method and kit are also provided.

Abstract: A method for diagnosing and appropriately cleansing and conditioning hair includes steps of evaluating characteristics of the hair and scalp and cleansing and conditioning the hair with a shampoo and a conditioner selected from a kit having a plurality of shampoos and conditioners based upon the results of the evaluations. The shampoos and conditioners in the kit include graduated amounts of surfactants and conditioning polymers, so that a shampoo and a conditioner most suitable for a specific hair and scalp may be selected and used.

Abstract: A method for the treatment of a substrate for electroless metal plating which includes the steps of applying onto at least a portion of the substrate a material selected for having adequate adherence to the substrate and for being suitably absorptive of an electroless plating cataylst. The coated surface is thereafter successively contacted with a plating catalyst, accelerator for the catalyst, and an electroless plating solution.
