Anthropomorphic artificial artist based on face-like detection and painterly rendering

Abstract

This paper proposes an artificial artist, Sorry Picasso, which has the ability to see, feel and paint an aesthetically appealing painting based on searched images of anthropomorphism nature. We proposed techniques involving image processing, facial recognition, computer vision and computer graphics to automatically identify embedded human face-like objects in a natural anthropomorphic scene searched from the Internet and perform painterly rendering on the identified objects into an aesthetic art. This work is novel as a reproduction of digital art from the perspective of an eye of an artificial artist. © ACM 2009.
