Textures of Textures: Querying Image Databases by Example
نویسنده
چکیده
Motivation: There exists no way to directly measure the similarity between the content of images. Without the ability to measure similarity, it is impossible to treat images as queryable, searchable, or sortable data. As a result queries for images are typically satisfied by manually searching through all images in the entire image database. To automate this process, new techniques are needed to extract from an image qualities which can be used to make measurements of similarity.

Isotropic Stochastic Procedural Textures by Example
Procedural textures have significant advantages over image textures. Procedural textures are compact, are resolution and size independent, often remove the need for a texture parameterization, can easily be parameterized and edited, and allow high quality antialiasing. However, creating procedural textures is more difficult than creating image textures. Creating procedural textures typically in...
متن کاملView-Based Techniques for Searching for Objects and Textures
We show how it is possible to use the surface properties of objects to nd them in image databases. Using color and local spatial cues at multiple resolutions, we can distinguish both textures and individual salient features on the surfaces of objects. Preliminary experiments on databases of size 20 (for the salient features) and 147 (for the textures) show promising results, and suggest we can ...
متن کاملA Compact Model for Viewpoint Dependent Texture Synthesis
A texture synthesis method is presented that generates similar texture from an example image. It is based on the emulation of simple but rather carefully chosen image intensity statistics. The resulting texture models are compact and no longer require the example image from which they were derived. They make explicit some structural aspects of the textures and the modeling allows knitting toget...
متن کاملVector field visualization using Markov Random Field texture synthesis
Vector field visualization generates an image to convey the information existing in the data. We use Markov Random Field texture synthesis methods to generate the visualization from a set of example textures. The examples textures are chosen according to the vector data for each pixel of the output. This leads to dense visualizations with arbitrary example textures.
متن کاملDeterministic Texture Analysis and Synthesis Using Tree Structure Vector Quantization
Texture analysis and synthesis is very important for computer graphics, vision, and image processing. This paper describes an algorithm which can produce new textures with a matching visual appearance from a given example image. Our algorithm is based on a model that characterizes textures using a nonlinear deterministic function. During analysis, an example texture is summarized into this func...
