Automatic colorization of grayscale image has been a challenging task. Previous research have applied supervised methods in conquering this problem [ 1]. In this paper, we reproduces a GAN-based coloring model, and experiments one of its variant. We also proposed a CycleGAN based model and experiments those methods on various datasets. The result shows that the proposed CycleGAN model does well in human-face coloring and comic coloring, but lack the ability to diverse colorization.
