    • Characterizing User Behavior for Speech and Sketch-based Video Retrieval Interfaces 

      Altıok, Ozan Can; Sezgin, Tev k Metin (Association for Computing Machinery, Inc (ACM), 2017)
      From a user interaction perspective, speech and sketching make a good couple for describing motion. Speech allows easy speci cation of content, events and relationships, while sketching brings in spatial expressiveness. ...
    • Combining Sketch and Tone for Pencil Drawing Production 

      Lu, Cewu; Xu, Li; Jia, Jiaya (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      We propose a new system to produce pencil drawing from natural images. The results contain various natural strokes and patterns, and are structurally representative. They are accomplished by novelly combining the tone and ...
    • Consistent Stylization and Painterly Rendering of Stereoscopic 3D Images 

      Northam, Lesley; Asente, Paul; Kaplan, Craig S. (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      We present a method for stylizing stereoscopic 3D images that guarantees consistency between the left and right views. Our method decomposes the left and right views of an input image into discretized disparity layers and ...
    • Data-Driven Iconification 

      Liu, Yiming; Agarwala, Aseem; Lu, Jingwan; Rusinkiewicz, Szymon (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Pictograms (icons) are ubiquitous in visual communication, but creating the best icon is not easy: users may wish to see a variety of possibilities before settling on a final form, and they might lack the ability to draw ...
    • Depth-aware Neural Style Transfer 

      Liu, Xiao-Chang; Cheng, Ming-Ming; Lai, Yu-Kun; Rosin, Paul L. (Association for Computing Machinery, Inc (ACM), 2017)
      Neural style transfer has recently received signi cant a ention and demonstrated amazing results. An e cient solution proposed by Johnson et al. trains feed-forward convolutional neural networks by de ning and optimizing ...
    • Drawing Characteristics for Reproducing Traditional Hand-Made Stippling 

      Martín, Domingo; Sol, Vicente del; Romo, Celia; Isenberg, Tobias (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We contribute an in-depth analysis of the characteristics of traditional stippling and relate these to common practices in NPAR stippling techniques as well as to the abilities and limitations of existing printing and ...
    • Edge- and substrate-based effects for watercolor stylization 

      Montesdeoca, Santiago E.; Seah, Hock Soon; Bénard, Pierre; Vergne, Romain; Thollot, Joëlle; Rall, Hans-Martin; Benvenuti, Davide (Association for Computing Machinery, Inc (ACM), 2017)
      We investigate characteristic edge- and substrate-based effects for watercolor stylization. These two fundamental elements of painted art play a significant role in traditional watercolors and highly influence the pigment's ...
    • ELASTIFACE: Matching and Blending Textured Faces 

      Zell, Eduard; Botsch, Mario (ACM, 2013)
