This blog will capture my progress on my honours project for COMP 4905. It’ll focus on realtime image stylization using the StyleBlit algorithm as discussed by Sykora et al in StyleBlit: Fast Example-Based Stylization with Local Guidance. This project will be done in Unity, and my source code will be stored on GitHub.

The last 2 weeks have been spent fixing bugs and working on making sure that each piece of the algorithm is up to date. Some of the bugs that I’ve worked on have included: An issue where uv coordinates were being compared instead of position coordinates, which would create problems with accessing correct texture points.… Read more

To start on a more positive note, here are some of the textures that I’ll be using as test samples. Some adhere more to the standard StyleBlit use case than others. There are several mediums, including watercolour, water-based marker, and coloured pencil. With my remaining time decreasing, I worked more on the engineering aspects of… Read more
