摘要

像素藝術是一種特殊藝術風格，只用少量的顏色來表現。受限於顏色盤的長度，顏色的選取對創作的作品至關重要。但要從一張具有成千上萬的真彩色參考圖中挑選出有限的顏色組成顏色盤並不是一件易事。因此我們提出一個自動系統，能夠從一張參考圖中挑選出合適的顏色組成顏色盤以供使用。套用這個顏色盤裡的顏色，藝術家和藝術新手能很快的獲得一張低分辨率且近似於最終像素藝術的圖，然後根據自己的觀點進行微調以得到滿意的作品。此外，當要根據一張平面像素藝術構建LEGO像素藝術時，我們提供了一個顏色轉換，使得轉換出來的顏色在保持逼真度的同時，盡可能的維持住對比度。

Pixel art is created with a limited color palette, which greatly affects the overall visual quality. It is difficult to pick out a limited number of colors, which define the color palette of an image, from a given image with hundreds of thousands of colors. We propose an automatic system, which adopts some guidelines a pixel art artist will apply, to effectively synthesize the color palette of a pixel art from a given image. Based on our approach, both artists and novices can easily attain a low-resolution image which is very close to a final pixel art. The user can then refine it to a satisfied final pixel art according to their perspective. Furthermore, we propose a palette transform for constructing a LEGO pixel art from a given pixel art while keeping the contrasts and colors as close as possible to the original pixel art provided.
