Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have introduced texture localization and self-similarity to example-based non-photorealistic rendering. During three years we have been studying, we achieved some remarkable results. The first one is acceleration of texture synthesis which uses fast graph-cut algorithm. The algorithm can realize high-quality synthesis. The second one is interactive system hiring onomatopoeic voice inputs. The system provides users intuitive and simple operation to realize NPR. These results were presented in some workshops and published in a journal.
