Abstract:
In this paper we exploit the power of contractive mappings to create special image effects. Under this framework,images are represented as the attractor of an Iterated Function System (IFS) and can be reconstructed using Fractal Interpolation. By controlling parameters of the process, we obtain a wide range of image effects.
