Spatiolemporal Editing using Multi-layered Image Synthesizer

Abstract

We have been developing a component image database for scene synthesis. This paper describes a new scene generation method using that image database and a multi-layered image synthesizer. In this method, several component images transferred from the database are arranged on multiple layers in spatiotemporal domain and combined to a scene or a program itself. We call this method Spatiotemporal Editing. An experimental system was also developed and usefulness of this method was confirmed.
