Method for non-photorealistic rendering

摘要

The invention is related to non-photorealistic rendering (NPR). It is aimed on improving edge processing in the context of NPR of images. The inventive method for non-photorealistic rendering comprises determining a feature map of the input image and edge processing the input image under guidance of the feature map. Through guidance of the feature map processing of real edges is ensured while processing of artificial edges is avoided. This results in improved edge processing.
