Controlling Abstraction Level for an Illustration-like Rendering for Same Shaped but Densely Arranged Many Objects

Abstract

In cartoons and animations, there is a method of representing same shaped and highly dense objects by mixing the flatly painted part and the faithfully painted part of each object. The method to reproduce its abstraction using a 3D model has been proposed, but it has a problem that the degree of abstraction is difficult to control because the parts of the abstraction are selected manually. In this research, we tried to control the degree of abstraction by automatically determining the part of abstraction from parameters for the degree of abstraction.
