چکیده

In this paper a novel approach for artificial mosaic generation is proposed. Gradient Vector Flow computation together with heuristics to maximise the covered mosaic area are used. The high frequency details are managed in a global way allowing to preserve the mosaic-style also for small ones. Experiments and comparisons with previous works confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Artificial Mosaic Generation with Gradient Vector Flow and Tile Cutting

Mosaics are images obtained by cementing together small colored fragments and are an ancient example of discrete primitive-based images. Artificial mosaics are illustrations composed by a set of small images called “tiles” that tessellate a source image aiming to reproduce the original visual information in a mosaic-like style. In this paper, we propose a mosaic generation technique based on gr...

Artificial Mosaics with Irregular Tiles Based on Gradient Vector Flow

Artificial mosaics can be generated making use of computational processes devoted to reproduce different artistic styles and related issues. One of the most challenging field is the generation of an artificial mosaic reproducing some ancient and well known techniques starting from any input image. In this paper we propose a mosaic generation approach based on gradient vector flow (GVF) properly...

Local gradient pattern - A novel feature representation for facial expression recognition

Many researchers adopt Local Binary Pattern for pattern analysis. However, the long histogram created by Local Binary Pattern is not suitable for large-scale facial database. This paper presents a simple facial pattern descriptor for facial expression recognition. Local pattern is computed based on local gradient flow from one side to another side through the center pixel in a 3x3 pixels region...

An Artificial Neural Network Model for Predicting the Pressure Gradient in Horizontal Oil–Water Separated Flow

In this study, a three–layer artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed to predict the pressure gradient in horizontal liquid–liquid separated flow. A total of 455 data points were collected from 13 data sources to develop the ANN model. Superficial velocities, viscosity ratio and density ratio of oil to water, and roughness and inner diameter of pipe were used as input parameters of ...
