Topic 12: Color transfer¶

1. Read and discuss the paper by Pitie et al..
2. Understand iterative distribution transfer (IDT) summerized in “Algorithm 1”.Expalin the gist of the method in the report.
3. Test your implementation of IDT on two self-generated distributions and plot the intermediate results similar to “Fig. A.1.” in the paper.
4. Describe and show the grain noise artefact in color transfer mapping.
5. For implementation details, read carefully section “4.1. Numerical solution”.
6. Capture your own image pairs and try to perform color trasfer on them.
