Shirley, Peter S.; Gooch, Bruce | Artistic vision: painterly rendering using computer vision techniques | We present a method that takes a raster image as input and produces a painting-like image composed of strokes rather than pixels. Unlike previous automatic painting methods, we attempt to keep the number of brush-stroke small. This is accomplished by first segmenting the image into features, finding... | Painting-like image; Raster image; Painterly rendering | 2000 |
