RESUMO
Automatic generation of fonts can greatly facilitate the font design process, and provide prototypes where designers can draw inspiration from. Existing generation methods are mainly built upon rasterized glyph images to utilize the successful convolutional architecture, but ignore the vector nature of glyph shapes. We present an implicit representation, modeling each glyph as shape primitives enclosed by several quadratic curves. This structured implicit representation is shown to be better suited for glyph modeling, and enables rendering glyph images at arbitrary high resolutions. Our representation gives high-quality glyph reconstruction and interpolation results, and performs well on the challenging one-shot font style transfer task comparing to other alternatives both qualitatively and quantitatively.
RESUMO
In this article, we propose a system that can automatically generate immersive and interactive virtual reality (VR) scenes by taking real-world geometric constraints into account. Our system can not only help users avoid real-world obstacles in virtual reality experiences, but also provide context-consistent contents to preserve their sense of presence. To do so, our system first identifies the positions and bounding boxes of scene objects as well as a set of interactive planes from 3D scans. Then context-consistent virtual objects that have similar geometric properties to the real ones can be automatically selected and placed into the virtual scene, based on learned object association relations and layout patterns from large amounts of indoor scene configurations. We regard virtual object replacement as a combinatorial optimization problem, considering both geometric and contextual consistency constraints. Quantitative and qualitative results show that our system can generate plausible interactive virtual scenes that highly resemble real environments, and have the ability to keep the sense of presence for users in their VR experiences.
