ABSTRACT:
A method and system for generating a portion of an image uses n differential representations of an image texture, with n>1, which are mixed to produce a synthesized texture. The n differential representations are modified by weighting each differential representation using a corresponding coefficient, where a sum of squares of the coefficients is equal to a value of approximately one. The n modified differential representations are then combined to produce a combined differential representation, and the combined differential representation is integrated to obtain a modified texture region.
