Cubic Stylization

Cubic stylization is a 3D stylization tool. Unlike image stylization (2D to 2D) and non-photorealistic rendering (3D to 2D), cubic stylization is a 3D to 3D stylization algorithm which takes a manifold triangle mesh as input and outputs a cubified triangle mesh.

This is a prototype implementation in MATLAB based on "Cubic Stylization" by Hsueh-Ti Derek Liu and Alec Jacobson.

Get Started

We can download the implementation by cloning the repository

git clone https://github.com/HTDerekLiu/CubicStylization_MATLAB.git

Once we download the cubic stylization code, we should also clone the only dependency gptoolbox to /path/to/gptoolbox. After cloning the gptoolbox, we need to add the path to gptoolbox by running the following commands in MATLAB

gp_subdirs = split(genpath('/path/to/gptoolbox/'),':');
addpath(strjoin(gp_subdirs(~contains(gp_subdirs,'.git')),':'));
savepath

Now we should be ready to play with cubic stylization! The main.m is the demo code of the Algorithm 1 in the paper. Running it with default parameters will give you the following result
