Neural Style Transfer
An algorithm that takes the artistic style of one image and applies it to the content of another.
Why It Was Important
Created by Leon Gatys, it proved that CNNs could isolate 'style' components (like Van Gogh's brush strokes) from actual image 'content'. This ignited the generative art boom, birthing massive filter apps (Prisma) and laying the psychological foundation for AI as a creative collaborator.
