A Hybrid BTF Model Based on Gaussian Mixtures
نویسندگان
چکیده
A generalization of our Gaussian distribution mixtures based method to Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF) modelling is discussed. We estimate the local statistical properties of the monospectral version of the fixed view target BTF texture in the form of a Gaussian mixture of product components. The synthesized texture is obtained by means of a step-wise prediction of the whole fixed view BTF texture subspace. In order to achieve an authentic BTF texture and to avoid possible loss of high-frequency spatial details we use optimally chosen pieces of the original BTF measurements in the synthesis phase. In this sense the proposed BTF texture modelling method can be viewed as a statistically controlled sampling.

Probabilistic mixture-based image modelling
During the last decade we have introduced probabilistic mixture models into image modelling area, which present highly atypical and extremely demanding applications for these models. This difficulty arises from the necessity to model tens thousands correlated data simultaneously and to reliably learn such unusually complex mixture models. Presented paper surveys these novel generative colour im...

The Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF) is the recent most advanced representation of material surface visual properties. BTF specifies the changes of its visual appearance due to varying illumination and viewing angles. Such a function might be represented by thousands of images of given material surface. Original data cannot be used due to its size and some compression is necessary. This pap...
متن کاملFast BTF Texture Modelling
This paper presents a novel fast model-based algorithm for realistic multispectral BTF texture modelling potentially capable of direct implementation inside the graphical card processing unit. The algorithm starts with range map estimation of the BTF texture followed by the spectral and spatial factorisation of an input multispectral texture image. Single orthogonal monospectral band-limited fa...
متن کاملProbabilistic Discrete Mixtures Colour Texture Models
A new generative multispectral texture model based on discrete distribution mixtures is introduced. Statistical texture properties are represented by a discrete distribution mixture of product components. A natural colour or multispectral texture is spectrally factorized and discrete mixtures models are learned and used to synthesize single orthogonal monospectral components. Texture synthesis ...
متن کاملA New Approach for Hybrid Bayesian Networks Using Full Densities
1 In this article, a new mechanism is described for modeling and evaluating hybrid Bayesian networks. The approach uses Gaussian mixtures and Dirac mixtures as messages to calculate marginal densities. The mechanism is proven to be exact, hence the accuracy of resulting marginals is only dependending on the accuracy of the conditional densities. As these densities are approximated by means of G...
