A new method to define a digital signature of a painting is presented. This signature is composed by a set of patches that are automatically selected as the images regions containing the most relevant information. The region selection is applied on a combination of saliency maps related to different features concerning intensity, color and visual saliency. We present the generation of the featu...

Research for creating impressive images like paintings has attained more and more importance because of the recent growth in processing images. Among many painting styles, watercolor style gives a strong impression because of its thin colors and its soft appearance. This paper proposes a method to create watercolor style images from input images, for instance photographs. In contrast with the p...

This paper describes our methods for repairing and restoring images of hidden paintings (paintings that have been painted over and are now covered by a new surface painting) that have been obtained via noninvasive X-ray fluorescence imaging of their canvases. This recently developed imaging technique measures the concentrations of various chemical elements at each two-dimensional spatial locati...

This paper proposes an improvement to the texture generation-based image in-painting algorithm, using multi-resolution analysis. Instead of optimizing the size of the neighborhood window of the synthesized pixel and the size of the test image, the approach described in this paper applies the same (minimal) window and test image size to different sub-bands of the discrete wavelet transformed (DW...

The İslamisation of the Turks developed in varying degrees between settled and semi-nomadic groups. There was an Islamisation accordance with religious understanding Book, under auspices state depending on educational tradition settlements such as cities towns. A different Islam from Kitabi religion, which can be expressed “popular Islam/folk Islam” became dominant among active role development...

In the paper, we present a new method of converting a photo image to a synthesized painting image following the painting style of an example painting image.The proposed method uses a hierarchical and adaptive patch-based approach to both the synthesis of painting styles and preservation of scene details. This approach can be summarized as follows.The input photo image is represented as a set of...
