Paper Title:
Feature-Based Image Metamorphosis
Authors:
Thaddeus Beier and Shawn Neely
Main Point(s):
The paper presents a new technique for the metamorphosis of one image into
another (also called morphing). It also gives a review on various approach
for the morphing. The new approach is featured-based which makes specification
and interaction very easy. Compared to spline mesh method, the new method
is more expressive, but slower.
Possible Use(s):
The technique can be used in educational and entertainment purposes.
Extensions:
The algorithm is "global", all line segments need to be referenced for
every pixel. This causes the slowness of the algorithm. Maybe local
control methods can be tried.
