Facial creation: using compositing to conceal identity
… study focused on the creation of new faces by compositing features from donor face photographs together that provide a way to generate new face identities. However, does the act of compositing conceal the identity of the donor faces? Two applications of these created faces require donor face …

Graphical Methods for Image Compositing and Completion
… problems in the literature of image and video compositing, and scene completion. For a visually plausible compositing, it is first required to separate the object to be composed from the background it was initially captured against, a problem that is known as natural image matting. It aims, …

Using Local Information for Compositing CG Into Traditional Art
I describe a procedure for compositing digital graphics into traditional artwork based on local characteristics of the art. This is based on understanding that variations in pictorial characteristics such as perspective, lighting and color, or style naturally occur in many examples of traditional …

Layer Extraction and Image Compositing using a Moving-aperture Lens
… images continues to be a difficult task. Image compositing is the process of superimposing two or more image layers to create a new image which often appears real, although it was made from one or more images. This technique is commonly used to create special visual effects in movies, videos and …

Not the Whole Story: Narrative Responses to Contemporary Globalization
… in our lives and narratives. Narrative compositing is exemplified in recent global fiction structured around multiple focal points dispersed across times, locations, ideologies, identities, geopolitical situations, and technological networks. These composite narrative forms complicate …

Perceptions and Disjunctions in Urban Space
… exploring through representational painting and compositing, perceptions, conjunctions and disjunctions in space and time in the urban environment. My approach situates the stranger as the phenomenological self, the perceptual being, at the centre of the research who explores the …

Microtruss Design for Strength and Energy Absorption
… to design bulk microstructure. Elements of compositing are utilized to alter the performance of the microtrusses, namely nanocrystalline nickel electroplating and carburizing. In terms of strength, both compositing approaches produced microtrusses with superior performance. Additionally, the …

Post-processed shadow determination for composition of depth images
… algorithms and to create better ones, but the compositing method has received little attention. The compositing method breaks a scene up into parts which can be rendered separately which are then put together in such away that the result is nearly indistinguishable from an image rendered from …

Determining the Optimum Number of Increments in Composite Sampling
… accounts for different sources of variation in compositing and data analysis. This model is used to define and understand the process of determining the optimum number of increments that should be used in forming a composite. The blending variance is shown to have a smaller range of possible …

Impact Of Choices When Creating Average Proximity Soundings As Applied To Lp/cl/hp Supercell Environments
… composites differ from one another, how the compositing technique itself affects the resulting thermodynamic and wind parameters, and which technique results in preserving features. This exploration was applied to three groups of supercell proximity soundings: low-precipitation (LP), classic …

Segment-based image matting using inpainting to resolve ambiguities
Image Matting and Compositing [6, 25] - the extraction of a foreground element from an image and overlaying it over a different background - are two important operations in digital image manipulation. The extraction of the foreground element and its composition over an existing background is …
