Creating Fluid Animation from a Single Image using Video Database

Creating Fluid Animation from a Single Image using Video Database

We present a method for synthesizing fluid animation from a single image, using a fluid video database. The user inputs a target painting or photograph of a fluid scene along with its alpha matte that extracts the fluid region of interest in the scene. Our approach allows the user to generate a fluid animation from the input image and to enter a few additional commands about fluid orientation o...

Video-Realistic Image-based Eye Animation System

delivered by EUROGRAPHICS D L IGITAL IBRARY www.eg.org diglib.eg.org Abstract In this work we elaborate on a novel image-based system for creating video-realistic eye animations to arbitrary spoken output. These animations are useful to give a face to multimedia applications such as virtual operators in dialog systems. Our eye animation system consists of two parts: eye control unit and renderi...

Creating Realistic Animations Using Video

Generating realistic animations of passive dynamic systems such as rigid bodies, cloth and fluids is an important problem in computer graphics. Although several techniques for animating these phenomena have been developed, achieving the level of realism exhibited by objects in the real world has proved to be incredibly hard. We argue, therefore, that an effective method for increasing the reali...

The Flux: Creating a Large Annotated Image Database

From image retrieval to image classification, all research shares one common requirement: a good image database to test or train the algorithms. In order to create a large database of images, we set up a project that allowed gathering a collection of more than 33000 photographs with keywords and tags from all over the world. This project was part of the “We Are All Photographers Now!” exhibitio...
