Abstract
One significant problem in patch-based texture synthesis is the presence of broken features at the boundary of adjacent patches. The reason is that optimization schemes for patch merging may fail when neighborhood search cannot find satisfactory candidates in the sample texture because of an inaccurate similarity measure. In this paper, we consider both curvilinear features and their deformation. We develop a novel algorithm to perform feature matching and alignment by measuring structural similarity. Our technique extracts a feature map from the sample texture, and produces both a new feature map and texture map. Texture synthesis guided by feature maps can significantly reduce the number of feature discontinuities and related artifacts, and gives rise to satisfactory results.link_to_subscribed_fulltexKeywords
