Abstract

This paper presents an automatic Oriental ink-rendering technique that recreates the artistic style of Oriental paintings from a single image. In Oriental paintings are characterized by strokes with various thickness and disordered dispersion. In this study, a stroke drawing method was developed based on the canny edge detector and radial curvature that are suitable for lines with varied thickness even along a single stroke. A dispersion-shading method was likewise developed by applying a set of iterated dual-filtering, and intensity exaggeration methods. The dispersion-shading method is designed to increase the local shade details, to decrease the global shade. Unlike the existing watercolor-rendering and abstraction system the proposed dispersion-shading method achieves disordered shade details rather than simplification.

본 논문에서는 한 장의 2-D 이미지를 입력으로 받아 자동적으로 동양화처럼 보이는 그림으로 바꾸어 주는 비 사실적 랜더링(NPR) 시스템을 제안한다. 동양화의 선은 두께가 다양하고 끝이 갈라지는 특성이 있고, 농담의 변화를 주어 대상 물체의 입체감을 표현하는 경향이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이미지의 외곽선 추출을 바탕으로 curvature를 사용하여 선을 따라 변하는 두께를 가진 선을 생성한다. 또한 기존에 수채화 스타일에서 제안된 농담 표현방법과는 반대로 지역적인 세부표현을 증가시키고 광역적인 농담을 줄여준다. 본 논문은 외곽선 추출, 선 그리기를 통하여 다양한 두께의 선을 표현해 주는 방법과, 이미지의 필터링과 intensity 변환을 통한 농담을 표현하는 일련의 연속적인 방법을 제안하다.
