V sup 2 ID: Virtual Visual Interior Design System

In this paper we propose a novel system of semantic feature extraction and retrieval for interior design and decoration application. The system, V sup 2 ID (Virtual Visual Interior Design), uses colored texture and spatial edge layout to obtain simple information about global room environment. We address the domain specific segmentation problem in our application and the techniques for obtaining semantic features from a room environment. We also discuss heuristics for making use of these features (color, texture or shape) to retrieve objects from an existing database. The final resynthesized room environment with original scene and novel object from database is created for the purpose of animation and virtual room walkthrough.
