Literature
Several of the earliest and most referenced papers in this field include:
- Popat in 1993 - "Novel cluster-based probability model for texture synthesis, classification, and compression".
- Heeger-Bergen in 1995 - "Pyramid based texture analysis/synthesis".
- Paget-Longstaff in 1998 - "Texture synthesis via a noncausal nonparametric multiscale Markov random field"
- Efros-Leung in 1999 - "Texture Synthesis by Non-parameteric Sampling".
- Wei-Levoy in 2000 - "Fast Texture Synthesis using Tree-structured Vector Quantization"
although there was also earlier work on the subject, such as
- Gagalowicz and Song De Ma in 1986, "Model driven synthesis of natural textures for 3-D scenes",
- Lewis in 1984, "Texture synthesis for digital painting".
(The latter algorithm has some similarities to the Chaos Mosaic approach).
The non-parametric sampling approach of Efros-Leung is the first approach that can easily synthesis most types of texture, and it has inspired literally hundreds of follow-on papers in computer graphics. Since then, the field of texture synthesis has rapidly expanded with the introduction of 3D graphics accelerator cards for personal computers. It turns out, however, that Scott Draves first published the patch-based version of this technique along with GPL code in 1993 according to Efros.

Famous quotes containing the word literature:
“The literature of the poor, the feelings of the child, the philosophy of the street, the meaning of household life, are the topics of the time. It is a great stride. It is a sign,—is it not? of new vigor, when the extremities are made active, when currents of warm life run into the hands and the feet.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I am not fooling myself with dreams of immortality, know how relative all literature is, don’t have any faith in mankind, derive enjoyment from too few things. Sometimes these crises give birth to something worth while, sometimes they simply plunge one deeper into depression, but, of course, it is all part of the same thing.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
“Great literature is simply language charged with meaning to the utmost possible degree.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
