Hands-On Image Processing with Python

Image quilting

The image quilting algorithm is an algorithm used for texture synthesis and transfer in images, described in the SIGGRAPH 2001 paper by Efros and Freeman. In this section, we shall touch upon the main idea behind the quilting algorithms for implementing texture synthesis and transfer, and show a couple of results obtained with an implementation of the algorithm. The code is left for the reader to implement (refer to https://sandipanweb.wordpress.com/2017/10/24/some-computational-photography-image-quilting-texture-synthesis-with-dynamic-programming-and-texture-transfer-in-python/ for more information).
