چکیده

This paper presents a compact and efficient shape signature that can be applied to shape retrieval from handdrawn sketches. The two proposed invariant features that constitute our affine invariant signature are: (a) angle between spoke vectors, and (b) cumulated normalized area between consecutive spoke vectors. The signature can be computed efficiently from an input shape and supports fast similarity matching. The approach has also been extended for partial shape retrieval through a partial shape decomposition procedure.

Data augmentation-assisted deep learning of hand-drawn partially colored sketches for visual search

In recent years, image databases are growing at exponential rates, making their management, indexing, and retrieval, very challenging. Typical image retrieval systems rely on sample images as queries. However, in the absence of sample query images, hand-drawn sketches are also used. The recent adoption of touch screen input devices makes it very convenient to quickly draw shaded sketches of obj...

Shape2Vec: semantic-based descriptors for 3D shapes, sketches and images

1 Convolutional neural networks have been successfully used to com2 pute shape descriptors, or jointly embed shapes and sketches in a 3 common vector space. We propose a novel approach that lever4 ages both labeled 3D shapes and semantic information contained 5 in the labels, to generate semantically-meaningful shape descrip6 tors. A neural network is trained to generate shape descriptors that ...

Generation of Slides from Hand-Drawn Sketches

As engineers, we often find ourselves spending a non-trivial amount of time converting sketched diagrams and figures into digital format. A lot of research has been done in conversion of hand-drawn sketches to computer drawings. However, most of it is domain-specific with training templates which must first demonstrate the shapes the user first intends to recognize as suggested by Kara and Stah...

Envisioning sketch recognition: a local feature based approach to recognizing informal sketches

Hand drawn sketches are an important part of the early design process and are an important aspect of creative design. They are used in many elds including electrical engineering, software engineering and web design. Recognizing shapes in these sketches is a challenging task due to the imprecision with which they are drawn. We tackle this challenge with a visual approach to recognition. The appr...

Hierarchical matching for retrieval of hand-drawn sketches

As pen-based devices become more popular, it has motivated several novel research issues in the area of pen computing. One interesting and practical problem is the storage and retrieval of hand-drawn sketches. A sketch can consist of handwritten notes, symbols, free-form hand-drawings, annotations on a document etc. It will be very useful to store the sketches in a database and then retrieve th...
