Towards Local Control for Image-Based Texture Synthesis
نویسندگان
چکیده
New advances in image based texture synthesis techniques allow the generation of arbitrarily sized textures based on a small sample. The generated textures are perceived as very similar to the given sample. One main drawback of these techniques, however, is that the synthesized result cannot be locally controlled, that is, we are able to synthesize a larger version of the sample but without much variation. We present in this paper a technique which improves on current fast texture synthesis techniques by allowing local control over the result. By local control we mean a final texture that is still perceived as a whole but presents variations in size of the basic elements. Our solution generates the final texture from a small collection of the same sample at different resolutions, adequately interpolated. We illustrate our results with some examples, including natural textures such as animal coat patterns, which exhibit local variations that can be adequately captured by our algorithm.

Synthesis of human facial expressions based on the distribution of elastic force applied by control points
Facial expressions play an essential role in delivering emotions. Thus facial expression synthesis gain interests in many fields such as computer vision and graphics. Facial actions are generated by contraction and relaxation of the muscles innervated by facial nerves. The combination of those muscle motions is numerous. therefore, facial expressions are often person specific. But in general, f...
متن کاملNew Pseudo-CT Generation Approach from Magnetic Resonance Imaging using a Local Texture Descriptor
Background: One of the challenges of PET/MRI combined systems is to derive an attenuation map to correct the PET image. For that, the pseudo-CT image could be used to correct the attenuation. Until now, most existing scientific researches construct this pseudo-CT image using the registration techniques. However, these techniques suffer from the local minima of the non-rigid deformation energy f...

Background: Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and micro-architectural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and increased fracture risk. Since Panoramic image is a feasible and relatively routine imaging technique in dentistry; it could provide an opportunistic chance for screening osteoporosis. In this regard, numerous...
متن کاملSynthesis of Near-regular Natural Textures
Texture synthesis is widely used in the field of computer graphics, vision, and image processing. In the present paper, a texture synthesis algorithm is proposed for near-regular natural textures with the help of a representative periodic pattern extracted from the input textures using distance matching function. Local texture statistics is then analyzed against global texture statistics for no...
