Abstract
We propose a new method for synthesizing an arbitrarily sized novel vector texture given a single raster exemplar. In an analysis phase, our method first segments the exemplar to extract primary textons, secondary textons, and a palette of background colors. Then, it clusters the primary textons into categories based on visual similarity, and computes a descriptor to capture each texton's neighborhood and inter-category relationships. In the synthesis phase, our method first constructs a gradient field with a set of control points containing colors from the background palette. Next, it places primary textons based on the descriptors, in order to replicate a similar texton context as in the exemplar. The method also places secondary textons to complement the background detail. We compare our method to previous work with a wide range of perceptual-based metrics, and show that we are able to synthesize textures directly in vector format with quality similar to methods based on raster image synthesis.
