This paper presents a novel unsupervised method to transfer the style of an example image to a source image. The complex notion of image style is here considered as a local texture transfer, eventually coupled with a global color transfer. For the local texture transfer, we propose a new method based on an adaptive patch partition that captures the style of the example image and preserves the structure of the source image. More precisely, this example-based partition predicts how well a source patch matches an example patch. Results on various images show that our method outperforms the most recent techniques.

This paper addresses the problem of tonal fluctuation in videos. Due to the automatic settings of consumer cameras, the colors of objects in image sequences might change over time. We propose here a fast and computationally light method to stabilize this tonal appearance, while remaining robust to motion and occlusions. To do so, a minimally viable color correction model is used, in conjunction with an effective estimation of dominant motion. The final solution is a temporally weighted correction, explicitly driven by the motion magnitude, both visually efficient and very fast, with potential to real time processing. Experimental results obtained on a variety of sequences outperform the current state of the art in terms of tonal stability, at a much reduced computational complexity.

In this work, we present a fast and parametric method to achieve tonal stabilization in videos containing color fluctuations. Our main contribution is to compensate tonal instabilities with a color transformation guided by dominant motion estimated between temporally distant frames. Furthermore, we propose a temporal weighting scheme, where the intensity of tonal stabilization is directly guided by the motion speed. Experiments show that the proposed method compares favorably with the state-of-the-art in terms of accuracy and computational complexity.
