Texture synthesis 221
Literature
Several of the earliest and most referenced papers in this field include:
• Popat [14] in 1993 - "Novel cluster-based probability model for texture synthesis, classification, and compression".
• Heeger-Bergen [15] in 1995 - "Pyramid based texture analysis/synthesis".
• Paget-Longstaff [16] in 1998 - "Texture synthesis via a noncausal nonparametric multiscale Markov random field"
• Efros-Leung [17] in 1999 - "Texture Synthesis by Non-parameteric Sampling".
• Wei-Levoy [5] 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 [18] .
