1. Texture Synthesis and Transfer
William Wedler
Final Project
Fall 2007

2. Project Description Synthetic texture from a given sample
Extract blocks and fit them together
Find blocks that match along their borders
Piece together with jagged edges
Justification: Markov property
Current state is (x,y) location
Output is a block from the given sample

3. Synthesis Results Markov Model
Current State: Overlapping region already synthesized (Shaded region)
Current Output: Selected block from input sample (Dashed outline)
Input
Output

4. Dependency on Sampling Parameters
20 pixel Window
30 pixel Window
40 pixel Window
Input:
1/6
Overlap
1/5
Overlap
1/4
Overlap

5. Texture Transfer Results
Modify model sates:
Add target correspondence information
&
Input texture
Input target

6. Extension Into Animation
Idea: Transition from mostly texture to mostly target figure
Vary resemblance to texture/target
Change window size with
Blur input target
Add time dimension to state information:
Consider texture from previous frame
Modified code borrowed from Proff. Efros

7. Animation Results Only vary window sizes, no prev. frame info: Inputs:
Vary window, blur and add prev. frame info:
Inputs:
Outputs:
