Image-based Portrait Engraving
Paul L. Rosin, Yu-Kun Lai
This paper describes a simple image-based method that applies engraving stylisation to portraits using ordered dithering. Face detection is used to estimate a rough proxy geometry of the head consisting of a cylinder, which is used to warp the dither matrix, causing the engraving lines to curve around the face for better stylisation. Finally, an application of the approach to colour engraving is demonstrated.
