Texture Synthesis - Goal

Goal

Texture synthesis algorithms are intended to create an output image that meets the following requirements:

  • The output should have the size given by the user.
  • The output should be as similar as possible to the sample.
  • The output should not have visible artifacts such as seams, blocks and misfitting edges.
  • The output should not repeat, i. e. the same structures in the output image should not appear multiple places.

Like most algorithms, texture synthesis should be efficient in computation time and in memory use.

Famous quotes containing the word goal:

    “In the years of the Roman Republic, before the Christian era, Roman education was meant to produce those character traits that would make the ideal family man. Children were taught primarily to be good to their families. To revere gods, one’s parents, and the laws of the state were the primary lessons for Roman boys. Cicero described the goal of their child rearing as “self- control, combined with dutiful affection to parents, and kindliness to kindred.””
    —C. John Sommerville (20th century)

    “U.S. international and security policy ... has as its primary goal the preservation of what we might call “the Fifth Freedom,” understood crudely but with a fair degree of accuracy as the freedom to rob, to exploit and to dominate, to undertake any course of action to ensure that existing privilege is protected and advanced.”
    —Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)

    “What is it that endowed things with meaning, value, significance? The creating heart, which desired, and, out of its desire, created. It created joy and woe. It wanted to satiate itself with woe. We must take all the suffering that has been endured by men and animals upon ourselves and affirm it, and possess a goal in which it acquires reason.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
