Stroke-based Rendering: From Heuristics to Deep Learning
In the last few years, artistic image-making with deep learning models has gained a considerable amount of traction. A large number of these models operate directly in the pixel space and generate raster images. This is however not how most humans would produce artworks, for example, by planning a sequence of shapes and strokes to draw. Recent developments in deep learning methods help to bridge the gap between stroke-based paintings and pixel photo generation. With this survey, we aim to provide a structured introduction and understanding of common challenges and approaches in stroke-based rendering algorithms. These algorithms range from simple rule-based heuristics to stroke optimization and deep reinforcement agents, trained to paint images with differentiable vector graphics and neural rendering.

MambaPainter: Neural Stroke-Based Rendering in a Single Step
Stroke-based rendering aims to reconstruct an input image into an oil painting style by predicting brush stroke sequences. Conventional methods perform this prediction stroke-by-stroke or require multiple inference steps…
TranslationVectorized Region Based Brush Strokes for Artistic Rendering
Creating a stroke-by-stroke evolution process of a visual artwork tries to bridge the emotional and educational gap between the finished static artwork and its creation process. Recent stroke-based painting systems focus…
Stroke-based Neural Painting and Stylization with Dynamically Predicted Painting Region
Stroke-based rendering aims to recreate an image with a set of strokes. Most existing methods render complex images using an uniform-block-dividing strategy, which leads to boundary inconsistency artifacts. To solve the …
