This paper surveys the state-of-the-art of research in patch-based synthesis. Patch-based
methods synthesize output images by copying small regions from exemplar imagery. This …

This tutorial describes the geometry and algorithms for generating line drawings from 3D
models, focusing on occluding contours. The geometry of occluding contours on meshes …

Artistic robotic painting automates the process of creating an artwork. This complex and
challenging task includes several aspects: creating algorithms for rendering brushstrokes …

Hand-drawn animation is a major art form and communication medium, but can be
challenging to produce. We present a system to help people create frame-by-frame …

This paper introduces a model for producing stylized line drawings from 3D shapes. The
model takes a 3D shape and a viewpoint as input, and outputs a drawing with textured …

Generating personal handwriting fonts with large amounts of characters is a boring and time-
consuming task. For example, the official standard GB18030-2000 for commercial font …

We present an augmented airbrush that allows novices to experience the art of spray
painting. Inspired by the thriving field of smart tools, our handheld device uses 6DOF …

Dynamic effects such as waves, splashes, fire, smoke, and explosions are an integral part of
stylized animations. However, such dynamics are challenging to produce, as manually …

Online crowdsourcing platforms have made it increasingly easy to perform evaluations of
algorithm outputs with survey questions like “which image is better, A or B?”, leading to their …

We present a real-time painting system that simulates the interactions among brush, paint,
and canvas at the bristle level. The key challenge is how to model and simulate sub-pixel …
