Texture Synthesis: Patch-Based Algorithm Explained

In this video I explain the purpose and implementation details of a texture synthesis (patch based) algorithm. Texture synthesis is the ability to take a source image and generate a new larger output - this is commonly used in video games or 3D movies where artists can't manually draw all the scene's textures, but instead let the computer do some work for them by repeating patterns and stitching sub-samples together.
