“…Lines are essential visual elements that the brain utilizes to construct shapes, objects, and scenes. This process of visual perception and organization aligns with Gestalt psychology, which provides historical context for our comprehension of how the brain processes visual information [13]. The importance of lines in perception is evident in the concept of "Illusory contours", where edges, lines, or shapes appear to exist in a visual scene even when they are not physically present in the stimulus.…”

The composition of an image is a critical element chosen by the author to construct an image that conveys a narrative and related emotions. Other key elements include framing, lighting, and colors. Assessing classical and simple composition rules in an image, such as the well-known “rule of thirds”, has proven effective in evaluating the aesthetic quality of an image. It is widely acknowledged that composition is emphasized by the presence of leading lines. While these leading lines may not be explicitly visible in the image, they connect key points within the image and can also serve as boundaries between different areas of the image. For instance, the boundary between the sky and the ground can be considered a leading line in the image. Making the image’s composition explicit through a set of leading lines is valuable when analyzing an image or assisting in photography. To the best of our knowledge, no computational method has been proposed to trace image leading lines. We conducted user studies to assess the agreement among image experts when requesting them to draw leading lines on images. According to these studies, which demonstrate that experts concur in identifying leading lines, this paper introduces a fully automatic computational method for recovering the leading lines that underlie the image’s composition. Our method consists of two steps: firstly, based on feature detection, potential weighted leading lines are established; secondly, these weighted leading lines are grouped to generate the leading lines of the image. We evaluate our method through both subjective and objective studies, and we propose an objective metric to compare two sets of leading lines.

“…To illustrate the novel by G. Marquez, a symbolic style of presentation was chosen, which is not based on a direct depiction of the events described. This style is closest to surrealism in painting, and this will require more dedication from the designer-illustrator to visualize the psychological emotions of the book's characters (Arnheim, 1974;Abbasov, 2016). The work "Love in the Time of Plague" itself, like all the works of G. Marquez, belongs to such a genre in literature as magical realism.…”

This work is dedicated to the illustration and design of the book "Love in the Time of Cholera" By Gabriel García Márquez. A completely new original book design with picturesque emotional illustrations has been developed, which distinguishes it from its predecessors. The topics covered in it have been and will always be relevant. The surrealistic slant of the illustrations, the non-standard format of the book itself, the arrangement of the text block in two columns, the graphic element in the form of a "flying" parrot-all this improves the perception of the novel by the great Colombian writer. Within the framework of the project, symbolic, surreal illustrations, cover, design, layout of the book were created, an original layout was developed and a printed copy of the book was produced.
