Applications Architectural design Mechanical design GUI design Animators Maps & geographical information Software engineering (UML) Note-taking Sketching devices Digitizing tablet (Wacom) PDA Tablet PC Board + ultrasonic emitters Phantom AAAI Spring Symposium: Sketch Understanding Workshop • Topics • Early stages • Applications • Recognition • Tools • Cognitive issues
Current Research Issues • Cognitive Science – How do people use sketches • What do people extract from sketches • When to recognize precisely; when to be approximate • Computer Vision – Sketch capture • Better recognition, segmentation, focus of attention • Recognizing crisp sketches vs. messy sketches • AI – How to infer & represent the user’s intent • Representation, semantics, reasoning • HCI • Building a seamless interface, Combining multi-modal inputs • Creating, editing & communicating sketches • Software Architecture • Low level processing vs. domain-specific plug-ins • Common toolkits, Building an infrastructure
