초록

This paper reports a non-photorealistic rendering method for creating stream pattern from an input image. Our method extracts potential stream pattern in the given image. The proposed approach uses a shock filter based on a partial difference equation(PDE) which is implemented by applying a selective dilation and erosion processes. However, unlike the traditional first order solution to the PDE, we employ a second order scheme and compensate for the undesired diffusive effects caused by a viscosity form. The selection of dilation or erosion for a pixel is based on an edge detector computed from a structure tensor. By adding noises on to the input image, our method also can generate stream pattern even if there is less texture in some area. The experimental results show that the stream pattern is extracted very well.
