  In this paper, we present a novel implicit glyph shape representation, which
models glyphs as shape primitives enclosed by quadratic curves, and naturally
enables generating glyph images at arbitrary high resolutions. Experiments on
font reconstruction and interpolation tasks verified that this structured
implicit representation is suitable for describing both structure and style
features of glyphs. Furthermore, based on the proposed representation, we
design a simple yet effective disentangled network for the challenging one-shot
font style transfer problem, and achieve the best results comparing to
state-of-the-art alternatives in both quantitative and qualitative comparisons.
Benefit from this representation, our generated glyphs have the potential to be
converted to vector fonts through post-processing, reducing the gap between
rasterized images and vector graphics. We hope this work can provide a powerful
tool for 2D shape analysis and synthesis, and inspire further exploitation in
implicit representations for 2D shape modeling.
