Recent Advances in Image Morphing
نویسنده
چکیده
Image morphing has been the subject of much attention in recent years. It has proven to be a powerful visual effects tool in film and television, depicting the fluid transformation of one digital image into another. This paper reviews the growth of this field and describes recent advances in image morphing in terms of three areas: feature specification, warp generation methods, and transition control. These areas relate to the ease of use and quality of results. We will describe the role of radial basis functions, thin plate splines, energy minimization, and multilevel free-form deformations in advancing the state-of-the-art in image morphing. Recent work on a generalized framework for morphing among multiple images will be described.

متن کاملTexture metamorphosis driven by texton masks
Image morphing has been extensively studied in computer graphics and it can be summarized as follows: given two input images, morphing algorithms produce a sequence of inbetween images which transforms the source image into the target image in a visually pleasant way. In this paper, we propose an algorithm, based on recent advances from texturefrom-sample ideas, which synthesizes a metamorphosi...

متن کاملThree-Dimensional Image of A Communicating Uterus
Recent advances in reproductive medicine have created a demand for more accurate and safe imaging modalities before assisted reproductive treatment(ART) (1). Gradually, the important role of three-dimensional (3D) ultrasonography in the diagnosis of uterine congenital anomalies has been proved (2-4).
