Evolving Line Drawings

چکیده

This paper explores the application of interactive genetic algorithms to the creation of line drawings. We have built a system that mates or mutates drawings selected by the user to create a new generation of drawings. The initial population from which the user makes selections may be generated randomly or input manually. The process of selection and procreation is repeated many times to evolve a drawing. A wide variety of complex sketches with highlighting and shading can be evolved from very simple drawings. This technique has potential for augmenting and enhancing the power of traditional computer-aided drawing tools, and for expanding the repertoire of the computer-assisted artist.

Co-Evolving Line Drawings with Hierarchical Evolution

We use an adversarial approach inspired by biological coevolution to generate complex line drawings without human guidance. Artificial artists and critics work against each other in an iterative competitive framework, forcing each to become increasingly sophisticated to outplay the other. Both the artists and critics are implemented in hercl, a framework combining linear and stack-based Genetic...

The Evolving Role of Physicians - Don’t Forget the Generalist Primary Care Providers; Comment on “Non-physician Clinicians in Sub-Saharan Africa and the Evolving Role of Physicians”

The editorial “Non-physician Clinicians in Sub-Saharan Africa and the Evolving Role of Physicians” by Eyal et al describes non-physician clinicians’ (NPC) need for mentorship and support from physicians. We emphasise the same need of support for front line generalist primary healthcare providers who carry out complex tasks yet may have an inadequate skill mix.

Retrieval of Line Drawings

The usefulness of a collection of scanned documents must be measured by the facilities available for retrieval. Whereas most existing document management systems do not index line drawings (unless it is done manually), we propose a method to index line drawings automatically. Our method uses a weighted information retrieval system .

Preattentive recovery of three-dimensional orientation from line drawings.

It has generally been assumed that rapid visual search is based on simple features and that spatial relations between features are irrelevant for this task. Seven experiments involving search for line drawings contradict this assumption; a major determinant of search is the presence of line junctions. Arrow- and Y-junctions were detected rapidly in isolation and when they were embedded in drawi...

A Method for Copyright Protection of Line Drawings

In this paper, we propose a method for copyright protection of line drawings using image retrieval. By matching local features, we achieve detecting not only printed but also handwritten partial copies of line drawings from complex backgrounds. We have proved the effectiveness of the proposed method based on a database of 11,600 line drawings. Figure 1: Process of local feature matching.
