Abstract:
Textures have usually been considered static—the surface itself remains constant through time. Many real-world textures are of interest, however, expressly because of the way their appearance changes or evolves with time. Consider the fracture of mud drying in a riverbed, the growth of grass on a hillside, or the formation of oxides on copper. Each of these natural processes forms a pattern over time, often producing striking effects. In this work we developed an example-based approach to model these processes. We use time-lapse images to capture them and we then synthesize larger spatial patterns of these processes using a new time-varying texture synthesis algorithm (Figure 1).
