Mutation 22

An example of using temporal rank median filtering on the spatially aligned stack of portrait virus images. I'm using limited temporal windows for processing for all of these recent posts (as opposed to processing the entire stack of images).

Mutation 21

Another example of using temporal rank max filter on the spatially aligned stack of portrait virus images.

Mutation 20

One of the advantages of working with the spatially normalized set of portrait images is that you can start to pull out features associated with the portraits in a more intelligent way since all of the facial images are spatially aligned across the stack. Here's an example using temporal rank max filtering on the spatially normalized portrait stack..

Mutation 19

The temporal pixel jumble effect applied to the complete stack of original portraits. Not particularly effective in my opinion, but i thought i'd post one example to show off what it does. I guess there is some rough similarity to the temporal mean rank filter effect in a more pixelated way.

Mutation 48

This portrait was generated by processing the original set of self portraits with the temporal motion rank max filter.

Mutation 18

There's a ton of stuff that can be done by treating the stack of source imagery as a movie brush for building photo mosaics. We'll get more heavily into that later but i thought i'd post a really simple example. I modified the 3.5 Collection Graffiti category to use the original portrait virus images. I used a different brush load image processing algorithm for the colorization, the meanshift1 algorithm seems to have some issues with the dark areas of the siggraph 2010 portraits. So i'll look into that, not sure if it's a bug or an artifact associated with the compression i used for the movie brush.

I think movie background textures may end up being more effective for this set of source imagery since you can use the source portraits at full resolution in the generated texturing to get at all of the detail of the original paint stroke texturing. I had to size the portraits down so small to make a source movie brush from the original portrait stack that you lose most of the paint effects in the individual portraits that make up the mosiac.

Mutation 17

Temporal motion rank filter with the min setting. So we're looking at minimum motion in local neighborhoods across the sequence of original portraits.
