CONTINUOUS LINE DRAWINGS A sketching technique

The pen will never leave the paper until the picture is finished.

Constraints: a single closed curve no self-intersection preserving key features (tone and

structure)

A KEY OBSERVATION TO OUR ALGORITHM

A tree structure An outer boundary forming a CLD

Page 6: Continuous Line Drawings on Dendrites

OVERVIEW OF OUR METHOD

A given image 1. Build a dendrite 2. Label a dentrite

3. Build a wall (blue)

4. Label and build (green)

5. Generate a CLD

Page 7: Continuous Line Drawings on Dendrites

STEP I: GENERATING A TREE STRUCTURE

1. A starting seed 2. The second stipple

3. The first dendrite

4. The third stipple 4. The second dendrite 5. The fourth stipple and the third dendrite

Page 8: Continuous Line Drawings on Dendrites

STEP II: FIRST LABELING PROPAGATION

A resulting tree from step I 1. Label each branch

2. Propagate labels and find a wall

3. Add image boundary as a wall

Page 9: Continuous Line Drawings on Dendrites

STEP II: SECOND LABELING PROPAGATION

1. Break the wall 2. Label the broken wall and the tree

3. Propagate labels and find the CLD

CONCLUSIONS Propose an automatic abstraction with

CLD Our new idea can preserve structure

and tone suggestions. The CLD problem remains a very hard

problem. Automatic balance between the quality of

abstraction and the aesthetic pleasure is still an unknown issue.
