Artistic rendering of the visual cortex
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we explain the processing in the first layers of the visual cortex by simple, complex and endstopped cells, plus grouping cells for line, edge, keypoint and saliency detection. Three visualisations are presented: (a) an integrated scheme that shows activities of simple, complex and end-stopped cells, (b) artistic combinations of selected activity maps that give an impression of global image structure and/or local detail, and (c) NPR on the basis of a 2D brightness model. The cortical image representations offer many possibilities for non-photorealistic rendering. Index Terms — Non-photorealistic, rendering, cortex, multi-scale.

Op Art rendering with lines and curves
Non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) is an area of computer graphics that studies artistic expressions for digital art. Unlike traditional computer graphics that emphasizes photorealism, NPR explores a wide variety of artistic styles including painting, sketching, and animated cartoons, and develops algorithms for recreating them. One art form that is largely unexplored in computer graphics is Op...
متن کاملComparing artistic and geometrical perspective depictions of space in the visual field
Which is the most accurate way to depict space in our visual field? Linear perspective, a form of geometrical perspective, has traditionally been regarded as the correct method of depicting visual space. But artists have often found it is limited in the angle of view it can depict; wide-angle scenes require uncomfortably close picture viewing distances or impractical degrees of enlargement to b...
متن کاملEffects of visual deprivation on epileptic activity in mature rat visual cortex
Effects of visual deprivation on the induction of epileptiform activity were studied in layer II/III of mature rat primary visual cortex. Field potentials were evoked by stimulation of layer IV in slices from control and dark-reared (OR) rats. Picrotoxin (PTX)-induced epileptic activity was characterized by spontaneous and evoked epileptic field potentials (EFPs). The results showed that OR s...
متن کاملArtistic Rendering of Digital Images Implementation of Texture Transfer Algorithm
Artistic rendering is a subset of non-photorealistic rendering with the intention of using artistic effects in rendered images. This paper looks at texture transfer as a generalized method to render digital images in artistic styles. Texture transfer algorithms transfer the source texture to a target image. Since artistic style is subjective, this algorithm has four adjustable parameters that a...
متن کاملArtistic Paper-cut of Human Portraits: Rendering and Perceptual Studies
The creation of art from photos aims at raising aesthetic perception of human viewers while preserving important contents in the source photos. In this process, two divergent factors are usually manipulated and balanced: likeness/fidelity and aesthetic depictions, since in many situations perfecting one of them compromises the other. Based on this two-factor model, we present a method for rende...
