StrokeStyles: Stroke-based Segmentation and Stylization of Fonts

We develop a method to automatically segment font’s glyphs into set of overlapping and intersecting strokes with the aim generating artistic stylizations. The segmentation relies on geometric analysis glyph’s outline, its interior, surrounding areas is grounded in perceptually informed principles measures. Our does not require training data or templates applies large variety input languages, writing systems, styles. It uses medial axis, curvilinear shape features that specify convex concave outline parts, links connect concavities, seven junction types. show resulting decomposition can be used create variations, stylizations, animations different design-oriented styles while remaining recognizably similar font.
