Making Extreme Caricatures with a New Interactive 2D Deformation Technique with Simplicial Complexes
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present a new interactive 2D deformation technique to make caricatures with extreme exaggerations. In our technique, we use simplices as deformation primitives. User defined source and target shapes of each simplex primitive define local coordinates. These local coordinates determine a unique translation vector for any given point in 2D space. We also provide a set of blending functions to effectively interpolate these translation vectors from each simplex primitive to compute a combined translation. These combined translation vector are used to transform each vertex of a texture mapped grid. Deformation of the grid provide interactive deformation of the texture that is mapped to the grid.

New methods for constructing shellable simplicial complexes
A clutter $mathcal{C}$ with vertex set $[n]$ is an antichain of subsets of $[n]$, called circuits, covering all vertices. The clutter is $d$-uniform if all of its circuits have the same cardinality $d$. If $mathbb{K}$ is a field, then there is a one-to-one correspondence between clutters on $V$ and square-free monomial ideals in $mathbb{K}[x_1,ldots,x_n]$ as follows: To each clutter $mathcal{C}...
متن کاملVertex Decomposable Simplicial Complexes Associated to Path Graphs
Introduction Vertex decomposability of a simplicial complex is a combinatorial topological concept which is related to the algebraic properties of the Stanley-Reisner ring of the simplicial complex. This notion was first defined by Provan and Billera in 1980 for k-decomposable pure complexes which is known as vertex decomposable when . Later Bjorner and Wachs extended this concept to non-pure ...
متن کاملAutomatic Generation of 3D Computer Caricatures based on Artistic Deformation Styles
Caricatures are a form of humorous visual art, usually created by skilled artists for the intention of amusement and entertainment. In this paper, we present a novel approach for automatic generation of a computer caricature from a facial photograph, which captures artistic deformation styles from hand-drawn caricatures. In order to achieve this, we propose a pseudo stress-strain model to encod...
متن کاملAlive Caricature from 2D to 3D
Caricature is an art form that expresses subjects in abstract, simple and exaggerated view. While many caricatures are 2D images, this paper presents an algorithm for creating expressive 3D caricatures from 2D caricature images with a minimum of user interaction. The key idea of our approach is to introduce an intrinsic deformation representation that has a capacity of extrapolation enabling us...

In this paper we show that expansion of a Buchsbaum simplicial complex is $CM_t$, for an optimal integer $tgeq 1$. Also, by imposing extra assumptions on a $CM_t$ simplicial complex, we provethat it can be obtained from a Buchsbaum complex.
