Su embroidery, as an intangible cultural heritage of China, is a treasure accumulated by human civilization, but it has been gradually fading from people’s view in recent years. To handle the problems of slow creative output, high learning difficulty, and low production efficiency, and to promote the sustainable development of Su embroidery, this study builds an automatic generation system of Su embroidery called MasterSu, based on the CorelDraw platform. The system can automate the generation of embroidery sketches through area texture filling and color recognition, which allows users to participate in the design process. Finally, the performance and usefulness of the system are verified through user experiments, and it is confirmed that the system can facilitate novice users to understand the embroidery culture, learn the embroidery techniques, and create their embroidery works through the system.
Much research has been done on the relationship between emotions and colors, and many color scheme recommendation tools have been developed. These tools can often help recommend a suitable color scheme to express a certain emotion, but it is still difficult to design satisfying schemes based on such recommendations. In this study, based on the Color Scheme Bible, Compact Edition, we developed Emocolor, which allows professionals to generate a large number of color schemes based on emotional words or emotional images. It is also used to iteratively optimize the generated color schemes based on an interactive genetic algorithm to find the color scheme design that best matches the user's emotion. Through the evaluation of tram color schemes based on emotional words, Emocolor can effectively generate tram color schemes that match users' emotions. It can also effectively transfer the emotion of an image with a single dominant color to a tram color scheme. In short, Emocolor can help professionals describe the relationship between emotion and color in a more accurate way and design emotional color schemes. Emocolor can be applied in advertising design, product design, interior design, and other fields.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
