Paint by numbers: abstract image representations
Numbers: AbstractImageRepresentations Paul Haeberli Silicon Graphics Computer Systems Computer graphics research has concentrated on creating photo-realistic images of synthetic objects. These images communicate surface shading and curvature, as well as the depth relationships of objects in a scene. These renderings are traditionally represented by a rectangular array of pixels that tile the image plane. As an alternative to photo-realism, it is possible to bstract images using an ordered collection of brush These abstract images filter and refine visual information before it is presented to the viewer. By controlling the color, shape, size, and orientation of individual brush strokes, impressionistic paintings of computer generated or photographic images can easily be created.
