Aesthetic Placement of Points Using Generalized Lloyd Relaxation
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
In this paper we describe a computational method for producing aesthetically pleasing distributions of disks on a canvas. The positions of the disks are initially given at random and are moved into interesting configurations ...
Style Nodes and Repolygonization for Hierarchical Tree-Based Implicit Surface Modelling
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
In this paper we present an extension to a hierarchical tree based implicit surface modelling system that includes interactively controlling style and appearance, and also creating a more accurate curvature based polygonal ...
Contrast Brushes: Interactive Image Enhancement by Direct Manipulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
We implement contrast brushes, an interactive method for directly brushing contrast adjustments onto an image. The adjustments are performed by a histogram warping approach that implements tone mapping using piecewisedefined, ...
CubeCam: A Screen-space Camera Manipulation Tool
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
We present CubeCam, an image-space camera manipulation widget that uses a projected cube to both visualize the relationship of the camera to the scene and as an interaction tool to change that camera. The cube geometry ...
Magnetic Curves: Curvature-Controlled Aesthetic Curves Using Magnetic Fields
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
We describe 'magnetic curves', a particle-tracing method that creates curves with constantly changing curvature. It is well known that charged particles in a constant magnetic field trace out circular or helical trajectories. ...
A Painterly Rendering Based on Stroke Profile and Database
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
We present a method for producing painting-like images composed of predefined brush strokes. Our proposed method is based on image retrieval method and uses a stroke database. The stroke database consists of transformed ...
Distinctive Parameters of Expressive Motion
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Recent work has shown the potential of basic perceptual properties of motion for notification, association and visual search. Yet evidence from fields as diverse as perceptual science, social psychology and the performing ...
Movie Posters from Video by Example
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
We present the first method for the generation of posters directly from video, borrowing the layout and composition from existing poster exemplars as a guide. Our system analyzes a given poster by determining face locations ...
Automatic Views of Natural Scenes
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Automatic generation of well-composed and purposeful images is useful in a variety of computer graphics applications. In this work, we explore a set of criteria based on utility, perception, and aesthetics applicable to ...
Automated Landscape Painting in the Style of Bob Ross
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
We present a system that can generate convincing synthetic landscape paintings with no user intervention whatsoever, nor any information about 3D geometry or lighting. The system is based on a direct implementation of ...
