New Approaches to Artistic Synthesis Relying on Visual Perception

Artists often take advantage of the limitations of the human visual system to create art that provides new experiences for the observers. Similarly, in this thesis, we explore new computational artistic compositions that create new visual experiences by re ...

Image reproduction with compensation of luminance adaptation

Mahmut Sami Arpa

We introduce an image reproduction model that retargets colors for printing purposes to ensure similar luminance perception under photopic and scotopic vision. Our model is based on the physiological functioning of the rod and cone cells in the retina in v ...

VETIM: Expanding the Vocabulary of Text-to-Image Models only with Text

Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta, Mahmut Sami Arpa, Martin Nicolas Everaert

Text-to-image models, such as Stable Diffusion, can generate high-quality images from simple textual prompts. With methods such as Textual Inversion, it is possible to expand the vocabulary of these models with additional concepts, by learning the vocabula ...

Dynamic media content categorisation method

Sabine Süsstrunk, Gabriel Albert Autes, Mahmut Sami Arpa

The present invention concerns a method of classifying a media item into a user profile suitability class in a classification system comprising a set of pre-trained artificial neural networks. The method comprising: receiving (101) a media file; extracting ...

Synthetic electronic video containing a hidden image

Sabine Süsstrunk, Roger Hersch, Mahmut Sami Arpa

We present a method for hiding images in synthetic videos and reveal them by temporal averaging. We developed a visual masking method that hides the input image both spatially and temporally. Our masking approach consists of temporal and spatial pixel by p ...

High Relief from 3D Scenes

Sabine Süsstrunk, Roger Hersch, Mahmut Sami Arpa

We present a method for synthesizing high reliefs, a sculpting technique that attaches 3D objects onto a 2D surface within a limited depth range. The main challenges are the preservation of distinct scene parts by preserving depth discontinuities, the fine ...

Exploiting the Signal-Leak Bias in Diffusion Models

Athanasios Fitsios, Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta, Mahmut Sami Arpa, Martin Nicolas Everaert

There is a bias in the inference pipeline of most diffusion models. This bias arises from a signal leak whose distribution deviates from the noise distribution, creating a discrepancy between training and inference processes. We demonstrate that this signa ...

Revealing Information by Averaging

Sabine Süsstrunk, Roger Hersch, Mahmut Sami Arpa

We present a method for hiding images in synthetic videos and reveal them by temporal averaging. The main challenge is to develop a visual masking method that hides the input image both spatially and temporally. Our masking approach consists of temporal an ...

Diffusion in Style

Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta, Mahmut Sami Arpa, Martin Nicolas Everaert

We present Diffusion in Style, a simple method to adapt Stable Diffusion to any desired style, using only a small set of target images. It is based on the key observation that the style of the images generated by Stable Diffusion is tied to the initial lat ...

Purkinje Images: Conveying Different Content for Different Luminance Adaptations in a Single Image

Mahmut Sami Arpa

Providing multiple meanings in a single piece of art has always been intriguing to both artists and observers. We present Purkinje images, which have different interpretations depending on the luminance adaptation of the observer. Finding such images is an ...

2d-3d sculpture paintings

Sabine Süsstrunk, Roger Hersch, Mahmut Sami Arpa

We disclose a method for synthesizing by computer an artwork where 2D and 3D contents are integrated within a same composition. Such an artwork creates plausible effects for the viewers by showing a different relationship between 2D and 3D at each viewing ...
