Abstract

In this chapter we present a framework of automatic image processing techniques that create high-quality, simplified, stylistic illustrations from color images, videos, and 3D renderings. Our method extends the approach of Winnemöller et al. (2006) to use iterated bilateral filtering for abstraction and difference-of-Gaussians (DoG) for edge detection. We present enhancements to these techniques to improve the quality of the output by adapting them to the local orientation of the input.
