Metamorphosis Using B Ezier Clipping
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, in the eld of entertainment, the metamorphosis of 2-D images, as it is an attractive technique, has come to be used in movies and television commercials. This technique is referred to as morphing. In the proposed method, B ezier or B-spline nets are overlapped onto digital images, and their deformation is performed by moving the control points of the nets on the images. The method proposed here has the following advantages: 1st order derivative continuity is preserved after deformation, any kind of a ne transformation is available, and the nets are automatically set by extracting the contours of images.

Parametric patches and volumes in function representation of geometric solids
We take an approach to specify and control implicitly dened n-dimensional free-form solid primitives using parametric functions of n variables. Outside of the domain, the parametric function value increases or decreases rapidly that is not suitable to design geometric objects. In this paper, we introduce a functional clipping operation which allows a free-form primitive to be treated as traditi...
متن کاملImproving B ezier Clipping and Chebyshev Boxing for Ray Tracing Parametric Surfaces
Ray tracing is a well known rendering technique for producing high quality photorealistic pictures. Parametric surfaces are being used extensively in geometric modeling and require fast and robust methods for computing the intersetions of rays with these surfaces. In this paper, we review two recent intersections methods and discuss their problems. Combining and optimizing the advantages of bot...
متن کاملHidden Curve Elimination of Trimmed Surfaces Using B ezier Clipping
Shaded display is popular for displaying curved surfaces because of the realistic appearance of the images produced. In the eld of computer aided geometric design, however, line drawings are more commonly used. For accurate evaluation of the curved surfaces in these designs, the conventional method of approximating curved surfaces with polygons is insu cient. In this paper we will present a met...

Due to some important properties of B ezier splines, they have great potential use in computer-aided mammogram diagnosis. In this paper, B ezier splines are applied in both lesion detection and characterization processes, where lesion detection is achieved by segmentation using a natural threshold computed from B ezier smoothed histogram; and lesion characterization is achieved by measuring the...
