Markov Painting

Build Markov Chain from an image to generate beautiful flood-fill art

Table of Contents

Description

A Markov chain is a system that experiences transitions from one state to another, according to certain probabilistic rules. You can find a simple introduction on setosa.io, and a more in-depth definition on brilliant.org.

This module is able to build a Markov chain by analyzing the colors transitions of any input images. After the Markov chain is created, the library can produce beautiful images which have statistically identical color transitions.

Input

Input image

Output

Output image

Install

You can install the module with npm

npm install markov-painting

You can import the module with a CDN like unpkg

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://unpkg.com/markov-painting@latest"></script>

You can clone the repository & include the markov-painting.js file in your project:

git clone https://github.com/ogus/markov-painting.git

Usage

Instantiate a new MarkovPainting, feed it an image, and generate as many image as you want

// Create a new object
var markov = new MarkovPaintinge();

// Create a new ImageData
var image = new Image(...);
var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
var context = canvas.getContext("2d");
context.drawImage(image, 0, 0);
var imageData = context.getImageData(0, 0, image.width, image.height);

// Build the Markov chain with ImageData stats
markov.feedImageData(imageData);

// Create a new ImageData
var markovData = mkvChain.createImageData(800, 600);

API

Instanciation

new MarkovPaintinge()

Create a new Object that contains a Markov Chain model.

Property

  • compression: THe compression level used to store colors in the model

Build a Markov chain

MarkovPaintinge.feedImageData(imageData)

Update the model of the Markov Chain with the color information of the input ImageData object

MarkovPaintinge.feedColorMatrix(colorMatrix)

Update the model of the Markov Chain with the color information of the input 2D Array containing colors as {r, g, b} values

MarkovPaintinge.addColorTransition(color1, color2)

Update the Markov chain with a single transition from color1 to color2, both defined as {r, g, b} values

Generate an image

MarkovPaintinge.createImageData(width, height)

Create an image as a Uint8ClampedArray, that can be used on a Canvas.

MarkovPaintinge.getNextColor(color)

Return a new {r, g, b} color that is adjacent to the input {r, g, b} color, based on the Markov chain transition probability

MarkovPaintinge.getRandomColor()

Return a random {r, g, b} color that exist in the Markov chain
