TEXTURE SYNTHESIS "RESULTS"
Theory
A two dimensional wavelet transform is applied to a patch of a texture
image. (The tensor product of higher order, "lifted" Haar wavelets
were used.) A modified wavelet scheme, which has the property of
tilability, is used to recreate the image. This new texture patch has
the advantage of being tilable.
Results
It also, as you can see, has the
disadvantage of two-dimensional wavelet shaped glitches, due to some
inherent numeric instability in the algorithm.
Images with smaller scale structure (such as the stucco and yew) are
reproduced better than images with larger scale structure (such as the
panda fur).
