Hua Li has been awarded the Michael A. J. Sweeney award for her Graphics Interface 2011 conference paper Structure-Preserving Stippling by Priority-based Error Diffusion. This award is given annually to the best two student-authored papers at GI (one for graphics, one for interface). Her work can be described as follows:
This paper presented a novel algorithm for creating stippled images, using a priority-based scheme to enhance image contrast and structural details. Various stylization effects, such as heightening, screening, and scratchboard, were also presented. The paper is notable for the variety and quality of its synthetic images.
Congratulations Hua!
