Color Transformation to Generate Different Seasonal Pictures

Abstract

We can see many scenery photo images on travel websites but it is still difficult to obtain them for all four seasons. To generate a plausible different seasonal picture, we propose a color transformation method by using example photos. From the example images available online, we extract representative colors for the target area and season. Our system can replace a part of the representative colors with different colors taken from a reference. Our experiments demonstrate how the proposed method can synthesize different seasonal pictures.
