Recent years have witnessed significant progress in example-based texture synthesis
algorithms. Given an example texture, these methods produce a larger texture that is tailored …

Data-driven methods serve an increasingly important role in discovering geometric,
structural, and semantic relationships between shapes. In contrast to traditional approaches …

Crowd simulation has been an important research field due to its diverse range of
applications that include film production, military simulation, and urban planning. A …

The quality and speed of most texture synthesis algorithms depend on a 2D input sample
that is small and contains enough texture variations. However, little research exists on how …

This paper presents a novel means of video compression based on texture war** and
synthesis. Instead of encoding whole images or prediction residuals after translational …

In this paper we propose a real‐time rendering approach for procedural cities. Our first
contribution is a new lightweight grammar representation that compactly encodes facade …

Structural semantics are fundamental to understanding both natural and man-made objects
from languages to buildings. They are manifested as repeated structures or patterns and are …
