Abstract

We present a method for generating refined 2D illustrations from hand drawn outlines consisting of only curve strokes. The system controllably synthesizes novel illustrations by augmenting the hand drawn curves’ shape, thickness, color and surrounding texture. These refinements are learned from a training ensemble. Users can select several examples that depict the desired idealized look and train the system for that type of refinement. Further, given several types of refinements, our system automatically recognizes the curve and applies the appropriate refinement. Recognition is accomplished by evaluating the likelihood the curve belongs to a particular class based on both its shape and context in the illustration.
