The ability to place surface samples with Poisson disk distribution can benefit a variety of
graphics applications. Such a distribution satisfies the blue noise property, ie lack of low …

In this article we survey techniques for the digital simulation of hand-made stippling—one of
the core techniques developed within non-photorealistic/expressive rendering. Over the …

This paper proposes a novel stroke-based rendering (SBR) method that translates images
into vivid oil paintings. Previous SBR techniques usually formulate the oil painting problem …

Non‐photorealistic rendering (NPR) algorithms allow the creation of images in a variety of
styles, ranging from line drawing and pen‐and‐ink to oil painting and watercolour. These …

The term stroke‐based rendering collectively describes techniques where images are
generated from elements that are usually larger than a pixel. These techniques lend …

We present a new point distribution algorithm that is well adapted to stroke-based rendering
systems. Its main characteristic is to deal efficiently with three conflicting constraints: the …

We present an example-based approach to synthesizing stipple illustrations for static 2D
images that produces scale-dependent results appropriate for an intended spatial output …

We describe a rendering system that converts a 3D meshed model into the stylized 2D filled‐
region vector‐art commonly found in clip‐art libraries. To properly define filled regions, we …

Stylized rendering methods, which aim at depicting 3D scenes with 2D marks such as
pigments or strokes, are often faced with temporal coherence issues when applied to …

We investigate how the perceived abstraction quality of stipple illustrations is related to the
number of points used to create them. Since it is difficult to find objective functions that …
