Planar shape enhancement and exaggeration
نویسندگان
چکیده
A local smoothing operator applied in the reverse direction is used to obtain planar shape enhancement and exaggeration. Inversion of a smoothing operator is an inherently unstable operation. Therefore, a stable numerical scheme simulating the inverse smoothing effect is introduced. Enhancement is obtained for short time spans of evolution. Carrying the evolution further yields shape exaggeration or caricaturization effect. Introducing attraction forces between the evolving shape and the initial one yields an enhancement process that converges to a steady state. These forces depend on the distance of the evolving curve from the original one and on local properties. Results of applying the unrestrained and restrained evolution on planar shapes, based on a stabilized inverse geometric heat equation, are presented showing enhancement and caricaturization effects. c © 1998 Academic Press

متن کاملPlasma Wave Acceleration of Electron in Bubble Regime in Presence of a Planar Wiggler
The plasma wave acceleration of electron in the bubble regime is investigated in a new configuration containing a planar wiggler. The space-charge field of the laser-created ion channel can focuse and stabilize the electron trajectory to guide it toward the acceleration region. The high-gradient plasma wave field can resonantly accelerate the trapped electron to higher energies in the presence ...
متن کاملEffect of Alumina Nanoparticles on the Enhancement of Shape Memory, Mechanical and Impact Properties of TPU/ABS blend
In this paper, the shape memory, mechanical and Izod impact properties of a new shape memory nanocomposite based on thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and alumina nanoparticles were investigated. The morphological results showed that the presence of 1% alumina nanoparticles made a reduction in diameter of ABS domains and caused a uniform distribution of the ...
متن کاملExample-Based Caricature Generation with Exaggeration
In this paper, we present a system that automatically generates caricatures from input face images. From example caricatures drawn by an artist, our caricature system learns how an artist draws caricatures. In our approach, we decouple the process of caricature generation into two parts, i.e., shape exaggeration and texture style transferring. The exaggeration of a caricature is accomplished by...
متن کاملPlanar Shape Enhancement by General Geometric Heat Flow
In this paper, we want to find a corner enhancement curve deformation approach. We consider General Geometric Heat Flow(GGHF) as a general deformation approach, and the evolution of curvature in the approach is derived. The criteria of curvature scale space are proposed and subjected to the GGHF. The conditions under which the corner can be enhanced are also studied. From all these constraints,...
