Abstract Text | Graffiti are omnipresent in today’s urban areas. A special form of graffiti are stencils which are mostly two-tone and easy to replicate. The research objective of the present thesis is to evaluate whether it is possible to automatically create stencils from an arbitrary image. While research on image abstraction is present in relevant literature, automatic stencil creation is understudied in scholarly work. In order to automatically create a stencil, a known algorithm is implemented and extended to create artistically pleasing stencils. The created stencils are then assessed using guidelines driven by research and expert input. Consequently, this work shows that the combination of already existing algorithms with carefully chosen parameters leads to the production of objectively wellmade stencils. |
