Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a new application of co PSXWHUYLVLRQ7RWKHEHVWRIWKHDXWKRU¶VNQRZOHGJHLWLVWKHILUVWattempt to incorporate computer vision techniques into room interior designing. The computer vision based interior designing is achieved in two steps: object identification and color ass ignment. The image segmentation approach is used for the identification of the objects in the room and different color schemes are used for color assignment to these objects. The proposed approach is applied to simple as well as complex images from online sources. The proposed approach not only accelerated the process of interior designing but also made it very efficient by giving multiple alternatives.

INTRODUCTION Comp uter vision is concerned with the analysis, processing and automated extraction of information from images. Its applications cover almost every field of daily life, such as medical sciences [1], surveillance [2], biometric identification [3] [4], and optic al character recognition for reading postal codes. Apart from these applications, computer vision has revolutionized traffic management through gathering traffic flow statistics and providing access to car parks [5], [6] [7]. This paper introduces another application of computer vision i.e. interior designing and identifies its potential market and possibilities of research. Room interior design is the process of shaping the interior of a room, considering the psychological, environmental, architectural and traditional aspects to establish a common style and theme in the room. The Color scheme and object positioning play a very important role in creating a common theme in room interior design. A well -considered selection of color scheme can help to unify the VSDFHFROOHFWLRQD QGGHYHORSDGHVLUHGDWPRVSKHUHLQD U RRPDQGFDQFKDQJHRQH¶VSHUFHSWLRQDERXWWKHURRP HJFHUWDLQFRORUVFDQPDNHDURRPIHHOZDUPFRROHU DQGHYHQLWFDQDIIHFWWKHURRP¶Vappearance i.e. makes a room feel smaller or larger (dar k colors give intimate appearance while lighter colors make a room feel larger). Although the color scheme is often a personal opinion but every color has a psychological value and therefore, there are certain colors that are more relaxing and influencing RQRQH¶VPRRGDQGWKRXJKWVDQGWKHUHIRUHDUHbetter suited for sleeping places, dining rooms and living rooms [8]. Selection of a color scheme for a room is not an easy task, rather a number of factors have to be considered to pick a proper combination of colors for a specific type of room that can create balance and harmony in the interior spaces. According to Kathryn Marsh [9], 8 factors including: personal color preferences, light source, room orientation, fixed and furnished elements, surfaces, nuances of color, paint finishes (includes flat, gloss and semi -gloss), place of color and personal mood must be considered in the selection of color for an interior space. Repetition of color pattern, progression, transition and contrast are some other ways of de veloping a theme in room interior space through color selection
