Co-occurrence Based Texture Synthesis
As image generation techniques mature, there is a growing interest in explainable representations that are easy to understand and intuitive to manipulate. In this work, we turn to co-occurrence statistics, which have long been used for texture analysis, to learn a controllable texture synthesis model. We propose a fully convolutional generative adversarial network, conditioned locally on co-occurrence statistics, to generate arbitrarily large images while having local, interpretable control over the texture appearance. To encourage fidelity to the input condition, we introduce a novel differentiable co-occurrence loss that is integrated seamlessly into our framework in an end-to-end fashion. We demonstrate that our solution offers a stable, intuitive and interpretable latent representation for texture synthesis, which can be used to generate a smooth texture morph between different textures. We further show an interactive texture tool that allows a user to adjust local characteristics of the synthesized texture image using the co-occurrence values directly.

Scoot: A Perceptual Metric for Facial Sketches
Human visual system has the strong ability to quick assess the perceptual similarity between two facial sketches. However, existing two widely-used facial sketch metrics, e.g., FSIM and SSIM fail to address this perceptu…

Existing face sketch synthesis (FSS) similarity measures are sensitive to slight image degradation (e.g., noise, blur). However, human perception of the similarity of two sketches will consider both structure and texture…

Co-occurrence Filter (CoF) is a boundary preserving filter. It is based on the Bilateral Filter (BF) but instead of using a Gaussian on the range values to preserve edges it relies on a co-occurrence matrix. Pixel values…
