articon is a Python package for flexible, corpus-based icon mosaicking. Given a target image or video, articon tries to find the best matches from the corpus and assembled them into a mosaic. Here are some emoji-art examples made with articon.
To see a demo of video mosaics, click here
from articon.models import IconCorpus, IconMosaic
source = 'path/to/icon/images/folder/'
target = 'path/to/target/image/'
# create corpus, resizing all images to fit within 40x40 pixels
corpus = IconCorpus.read(source=source, size=40)
# visualize corpus
corpus.show()
# create mosaic, pre-resizing target to fit within 900x900 pixels
mosaic = IconMosaic(target=target,
corpus=corpus,
size=900)
# show mosaic
mosaic.show()
# write mosaic to disk
mosaic.save('mymosaic.png')This code is a Python porting and expansion of emoji-mosaic by ericandrewlewis, and inspired by Yung Jake's emoji art.
To install the latest version of articon with pip, run:
pip install articonA convenient corpus dataset that works well with articon is Kaggle's Full Emoji Image Dataset, which you can download here.
