A Sketch-Based Generation Model for Diverse Ceramic Tile Images Using Generative Adversarial Network

Ceramic tiles are one of the most indispensable materials for interior decoration.The ceramic patterns can’t match the design requirements in terms of diversity and interactivity due to their natural textures.In this paper,we propose a sketch-based generation method for generating diverse ceramic tile images based on a hand-drawn sketches using Generative Adversarial Network(GAN).The generated tile images can be tailored to meet the specific needs of the user for the tile textures.The proposed method consists of four steps.Firstly,a dataset of ceramic tile images with diverse distributions is created and then pre-trained based on GAN.Secondly,for each ceramic tile image in the dataset,the corresponding sketch image is generated and then the mapping relationship between the images is trained based on a sketch extraction network using ResNet Block and jump connection to improve the quality of the generated sketches.Thirdly,the sketch style is redefined according to the characteristics of the ceramic tile images and then double cross-domain adversarial loss functions are employed to guide the ceramic tile generation network for fitting in the direction of the sketch style and to improve the training speed.Finally,we apply hidden space perturbation and interpolation for further enriching the output textures style and satisfying the concept of“one style with multiple faces”.We conduct the training process of the proposed generation network on 2583 ceramic tile images dataset.To measure the generative diversity and quality,we use Frechet Inception Distance(FID)and Blind/Referenceless Image Spatial Quality Evaluator(BRISQUE)metrics.The experimental results prove that the proposed model greatly enhances the generation results of the ceramic tile images,with FID of 32.47 and BRISQUE of 28.44.

Composition dependence of phase structure and electrical properties of(1-y)Bi_(1-x)Nd_xFeO_(3-y)BiScO_3 ceramics

In this work, we have studied a new lead-free ceramic of（1-y）Bi1-xNdxFeO3-yBiScO3（0.05≤x≤0.15 and 0.05≤y≤0.15） prepared by a conventional solid-state method, and the influences of Nd and Sc content on their phase structure and electrical properties were investigated in detail. The ceramics with 0.05≤x≤0.10 and 0.05≤y≤0.15 belong to an R3 c phase, and the rhombohedral-like and orthorhombic multiphase coexistence is established in the composition range of 0.125≤x≤0.15 and y=0. The electrical properties of the ceramics can be enhanced by modifying x and y values. The highest piezoelectric coefficient（d33～51 p C/N） is obtained in the ceramics with x=0.075 and y=0.125, which is superior to that of a pure BiFeO3 ceramic. In addition, a lowest dielectric loss（tan δ～0.095%, f=100 k Hz） is shown in the ceramics with x=0.15 and y=0 due to the involvement of low defect concentrations, and the improved thermal stability of piezoelectricity at 20–600℃ is possessed in the ceramics. We believe that the ceramics can play a meaningful role in the high-temperature lead-free piezoelectric applications.

Ceramic Artist Depicts Life in Designs

QI Zheng, 36, enjoys popularity in the ceramic art circles of Shandong Province. Last year, she held her first individual exhibition on ceramic carving in Beijing. A continuous stream of visitors, including artists and fans of her work, came to the exhibition. But the event was so short that many people didn’t have the chance to see her work. So Qi brought in new works and held a second showing. Qi’s works also have been included in an exhibition of works
