A Refined Structure Preserving Image Abstraction Framework as a Pre-Processing Technique for Desire Focusing on Prominent Structure and Artistic Stylization

Abstract

This work identifies the strong dominant features by its location and extracts the image features for the purpose of automatic desire focusing on prominent structure and artistic stylization of images. At the pre-processing level, dataset image is treated using refined structure preserving image abstraction framework which can deliver the best effectual structure preserved abstracted results by utilizing visual attributes from 2D color image. The presented framework efficiently conserves the structural characteristics in the foreground of an input image by exhaustively amalgamate the series of non-photorealistic rendering image filters over meticulous investigational work and it also reduces the background substance of an image. The framework assesses image and object space details to generate structure preserved image abstraction thus distinguishing the accentuated elements of an enhanced structures using Harris key-point feature detector and chooses the 100 major unique dominant feature locations among available features. This work automatically selects the unique location from the extracted features using polynomial region of interest and unselected image regions and its background are blurred using Gaussian motion blurring with point spread function. Deblurring the selected region using wiener filtering to get the desire focusing on prominent structure followed by color quantization and flow-based bilateral filtering is applied over focused structural region to achieve artistic stylization.\xa0Efficiency of the framework has been validated by carrying out the trials on the selected Flickr repository, David Mould and Ruixing Wang dataset. In addition, user’s visual opinion and the image quality estimation methods were also utilized to appraise the proposed pre-processing framework. This work lists the structure preserving image abstraction framework applications, limitation, execution difficulties and future work in the field of Non-photorealistic rendering domain.
