Construct the photomosaic of an image

Photomosaic

This repository contains the code to construct the photomosaic of an image using a flower dataset.

Dataset

Description of Dataset
Flower102 : Flower dataset consisting of 102 classes.
Flower17 : You can alternatively use the flower dataset with 17 classes.

Parameters

infile : path to target image
outfile : path to output image
tol : tolerance, if tol=5 then every patch in target image will be replaced randomly by one of the top 5 matches from the library
f : scale, every library image replaces an fxf patch of the target image. Lower f corresponds to higher resolution of the output image.

Usage

1. ./setup.sh
2. python mosaic.py --infile images/input/uiuc.jpg --outfile images/output/uiuc.png --tol 5 --f 16
   Replace infile, outfile with your image paths. Tweak tol and f until you get the desired output.
