Sketch similarity searching
… perceive an image. In this project, we create a sketch search engine that facilitates users' actions in finding similar images based on various cues, such as colour, shape, hue, brightness and other relevant criteria, which have been inputted interactively as a sketch. The system framework …

Computer Sketch Recognition
<p>Tens of thousands of years ago, humans drew sketches that we can see and identify even today. Sketches are the oldest recorded form of human communication and are still widely used. The universality of sketches supersedes that of culture and language. Despite the universal accessibility of …

A Sketch of Sound
… texture is central to my orchestral work, A Sketch of Sound. The brass, wind, percussion, and string sections function independently of each other, and each creates a single type of atmospheric sound. Extensions of these basic textures either connect or collide against each other. Such …

User-directed sketch interpretation
… and object diagrams) by combining an off-line sketch recognition system with the user interface of a traditional structured graphics editor. The system, called UDSI (user-directed sketch interpretation), aims to provide drawing freedom by allowing the user to sketch entirely off-line using a …

Three-dimensional sketch tool
… computer software program that enables a user to sketch lines and shapes into three-dimensional space. The problem with current computer modeling software is its requirement for the precise input of control points to establish three-dimensional objects and scenes. This heavy demand for precision …

Digitally augmented sketch-planning
… recent technological advances, the practice of sketching plans has remained largely unaffected. There may be good reasons for eschewing computers in the design arena such as that their use may detract from the liberty of the design thinking process. This thesis suggests that this reluctance may …

The poetics of sketch comedy
The Poetics of Sketch Comedy labels, defines and analyzes the conventions of sketch comedy. The comic sketch is examined for its structural conventions, and is broken into categories for analysis. The superstructure of variety entertainment, and conventions used to simulate cohesiveness in variety …

Sketch Quality Prediction Using Transformers
The quality of an input sketch can affect performance of the computational algorithms. However, the quality of a sketch is not often considered when working with sketch tasks and automated sketch quality prediction has not been previously studied. This thesis presents quality prediction on the …

Efficient sketch-based 3D character modelling.
Sketch-based modelling (SBM) has undergone substantial research over the past two decades. In the early days, researchers aimed at developing techniques useful for modelling of architectural and mechanical models through sketching. With the advancement of technology used in designing visual effects …

Sketch image recognition using deep features
Sketch is a special group of images, and the ability to recognize sketches is of great importance for many applications, including the human-computer interaction and childhood education. Previous approaches often pose this as a sub-class of general image classification which can be solved with a …

Combining representations for improved sketch recognition
Sketching is a common means of conveying, representing, and preserving information, and it has become a subject of research as a method for human-computer interaction, specifically in the area of computer-aided design. Digitally collected sketches contain both spatial and temporal information; …

3D Sketch Recognition Using The Microsoft Kinect
The concept of sketch-based recognition has recently been used to enhance object categorization and speed up image retrieval. However, in each of the previous studies, the user was required to sketch on a two-dimensional plane. Currently there haven’t been any studies on the performance of …
