Cartoon Style Rendering

The objective of Cartoon Style Rendering is to produce a cartoon looking rendering out of a 3D scene. Instead of rendering photorealistic images the focus lies on artistic and stylistic characteristics. In this paper we give an overview of the common methods to generate cartoon looking scenes. We describe the basic techniques for the silhouette edge detection and the shading of the interior. Th...

Vectorization of Cartoon Drawings

Cartoon+Texture Image Decomposition

The algorithm first proposed in [3] stems from a theory proposed by Yves Meyer in [1]. The cartoon+texture algorithm decomposes any image f into the sum of a cartoon part, u , where only the image contrasted shapes appear, and a textural v part with the oscillating patterns. Such a decomposition f=u+v is analogous to the classical signal processing low pass-high pass filter decomposition. Howev...

Towards Defeating the Crossfire Attack using SDN

In this work, we propose online traffic engineering as a novel approach to detect and mitigate an emerging class of stealthy Denial of Service (DoS) link-flooding attacks. Our approach exploits the Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm, which renders the management of network traffic more flexible through centralised flow-level control and monitoring. We implement a full prototype of our s...

Cartoon talking heads

We discuss CharToon, an interactive system to design and animate 2D cartoon talking heads. We give illustrations of the expressive and artistic effects which can be produced. It has been used with success by different types of users.
