Dynamic Transfer of Surface Details

The image-based surface detail transfer has been shown to be an effective technique for blemish removal. One drawback is that it requires the user to specify the smoothing parameter sigma. Furthermore, every time the user modifies the sigma, it has to apply Gaussian smoothing to the entire image which can be time consuming for large images. In this paper, we present a technique to dynamically transfer surface details. We do not require the user to specify sigma. And we only smooth the area which is necessary for detail transfer,thus avoiding the time consuming operation of smoothing the entire images.
