Title
Texture Mixer: A Network For Controllable Synthesis And Interpolation Of Texture
Abstract
This paper addresses the problem of interpolating visual textures. We formulate this problem by requiring (1) by example controllability and (2) realistic and smooth interpolation among an arbitrary number of texture samples. To solve it we propose a neural network trained simultaneously on a reconstruction task and a generation task, which can project texture examples onto a latent space where they can be linearly interpolated and projected back onto the image domain, thus ensuring both intuitive control and realistic results. We show our method outperforms a number of base-lines according to a comprehensive suite of metrics as well as a user study. We further show several applications based on our technique, which include texture brush, texture dis-solve, and animal hybridization.
