The artistic style of a painting is a subtle aesthetic judgment used by art historians for grouping and classifying artwork. The recently introduced ‘neural-style’ algorithm substantially succeeds in merging the perceived artistic style of one image or set of images with the perceived content of another. In light of this and other recent developments in image analysis via convolutional neural n...

Are simple strokes unique to the artist or designer who renders them? If so, can this idea be used to identify authorship or to classify artistic drawings? Also, could training methods be devised to develop particular styles? To answer these questions, we propose the Stroke Authorship Recognition (SAR) approach, a novel method that distinguishes the authorship of 2D digitized drawings. SAR conv...

Facebook has established itself as one of the major players in social networking, claiming that it helps members connect and share with the people in their lives. But what if the people you want to connect and share with are your artistic collaborators? Can Facebook be used creatively, as a collaborative artistic environment? This paper explores the creative use of Facebook as a tool for creati...

Barbara Hayes-Roth, Stanford University and Extempo Systems Inc. In contemplating the possibility of interactive story systems, I begin with two premises, an artistic premise and a technical premise. My artistic premise is that we should strive for an interactive story experience that achieves for the participant the same artistic goals achieved by the great works of fiction in the traditional ...

According to R. G. Collingwood in The Principles of Art, art is the expression of emotion--a much-criticized view. I attempt to provide some groundwork for a defensible modern version of such a theory via some novel further criticisms of Collingwood, including the exposure of multiple ambiguities in his main concept of expression of emotion, and a demonstration that, surprisingly enough, his vi...

We have shown that it is possible to achieve artistic style transfer within a purely image processing paradigm. This is in contrast to previous work that utilized deep neural networks to learn the difference between “style” and “content” in a painting. We leverage the work by Kwatra et. al. on texture synthesis to accomplish “style synthesis” from our given style images, building off the work o...

The issues of professional training future teachers choreographic disciplines have always aroused the researchers’ interest. A number historical and pedagogical, experimental studies highlight training, forming readiness specialists in choreography. However, comparative studies, where comparing experience leading countries world a particular specialty is progressive contributes to adaptation be...

Abstract - Augmented reality (AR) technology has potential to revolutionize the way we interact with and visualize world around us. One area where this great is in field of furniture design home decor. The goal Reality Furniture project develop a platform which allows users virtually preview their own environments using AR technology. Using smartphone or other AR-enabled device, will be able se...

BACKGROUND Art is a characteristic of mankind, which requires superior central nervous processing and integration of motor functions with visual information. At the present time, a significant amount of information related to neurobiological basis of artistic creation has been derived from neuro-radiological cognitive studies, which have revealed that subsequent to tissue destruction, the artis...
