A Computational Model for Pattern and Tile Designs Classification Using Plane Symmetry Groups
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a computational model for pattern analysis and classification using symmetry group theory. The model was designed to be part of an integrated management system for pattern design cataloguing and retrieval in the textile and tile industries. While another reference model [6], uses intensive image processing operations, our model is oriented to the use of graphic entities. The model starts by detecting the objects present in the initial digitized image. These objects are then transformed into Bezier curves and grouped to form motifs. The objects and motifs are compared and their symmetries are computed. Motif repetition in the pattern provides the fundamental parallelogram, the deflexion axes and rotation centres that allow us to classify the pattern according its plane symmetry group. This paper summarizes the results obtained from processing 22 pattern designs from Islamic mosaics in the Alcazar of Seville.

The bathrooms were assumed as locations for presence of various classes of society in the past time and walls of baths were decorated with motley tiles and various designs. The human designs drawn on these tiles are deemed as one of the most conspicuous elements that reflect social, cultural, and artistic conditions in community These motifs with various themes and ways of different design had ...
متن کاملEnumeration of Polyominoes, Polyiamonds and Polyhexes for Isohedral Tilings with Rotational Symmetry
We describe computer algorithms that can enumerate and display, for a given n > 0 (in theory, of any size), all n-ominoes, niamonds, and n-hexes that can tile the plane using only rotations; these sets necessarily contain all such tiles that are fundamental domains for p4, p3, and p6 isohedral tilings. We display the outputs for small values of n. This expands on earlier work [3]. 1 Polyominoes...

Fullerene chemistry is nowadays a well-established field of both theoretical and experimental investigations. This study considers the symmetry of small fullerenes cage C24 and C28. Using PM3 program for C24 and C28 fullerenes, Oh and Td symmetry were confirmed, respectively. The mentioned algorithm to compute the automorphism group of these fullerenes with connectivity and geometry of th...
متن کاملSymmetry group, Hamiltonian equations and conservation laws of general three-dimensional anisotropic non-linear sourceless heat transfer equation
In this paper Lie point symmetries, Hamiltonian equations and conservation laws of general three-dimensional anisotropic non-linear sourceless heat transfer equation are investigated. First of all Lie symmetries are obtained by using the general method based on invariance condition of a system of differential equations under a prolonged vector field. Then the structure of symmetry ...
متن کاملA Quasilinear-Time Algorithm for Tiling the Plane Isohedrally with a Polyomino
A plane tiling consisting of congruent copies of a shape is isohedral provided that for any pair of copies, there exists a symmetry of the tiling mapping one copy to the other. We give a O(n log2 n)-time algorithm for deciding if a polyomino with n edges can tile the plane isohedrally. This improves on the O(n18)-time algorithm of Keating and Vince and generalizes recent work by Brlek, Provença...
