ANISOMETRIC TEXTURE SYNTHESIS Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC G06T7/40 

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: in the system and method, an anisometric texture having a similar visual appearance as a given exemplar, but with varying orientation and scale, is generated. This variation is achieved by modifying the upsampling and correction processes of the texture synthesis technique using a Jacobian field. The modified correction process includes accessing only immediate neighbours of a pixel instead of non-local pixels. This constraint that only immediate neighbours be used also allows the generation of seamless anisometric surface textures. This is achieved by using indirection maps containing indirection pointers that are used to jump from a set of pixels outside the boundary of a texture atlas part to another part. The system and method also enable to increase image definition during anisometric synthesis using a Jacobian field.

EFFECT: broader functionalities owing to presentation of several versions of an exemplar with multiple variations in orientation and scale.
