A trainable system for recognizing diagrammatic sketch languages

TLDR
This paper proposes an approach for constructing sketch parsers whose recognition accuracy and speed is significantly improved by acquiring information on the user's sketching style during a training phase.
Abstract
In this paper we propose an approach for constructing sketch parsers whose recognition accuracy and speed is significantly improved by acquiring information on the user's sketching style during a training phase. The construction process consists in specifying a sketch grammar description of the language syntax, automatically generating a parser from such specification, and let the user train the recognition system on a set of sketch sentences.

Recognition and processing of hand-drawn diagrams using syntactic and semantic analysis

TL;DR: DiaGen is built upon, a generic diagram editor generator enabling syntax and semantic analysis for diagrams, and extended it to support hand drawing, which helps resolve the inevitable ambiguities arising from this impreciseness.

Recognition of multi-touch drawn sketches

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the classifier is capable of identifying common basic primitives and gestures as well as complex drawings in multi-touch drawn sketches, which provides the possibilities of domain independent sketching.

Recognizing Hand-drawn Glyphs from One Example and Four Lines of Code

TL;DR: A tool that generates a recognizer for hand-drawn glyphs from one example, which shows that programmers with no knowledge of gesture recognition can generate a Recognizer and integrate it into an app more quickly and easily than manually coding recognition rules, and that the generated recognizer is more accurate than a manually coded one.

A Generic Approach to the Recognition and Analysis of Sketched Diagrams Using Context Information.

TL;DR: DSKETCH, an approach to sketching of diagrams, is presented, which combines the DIAGEN framework, which allows for generation of WIMP-based diagram editors from specifications, and the formal approach of graph transformation, which results in a powerful and reliable diagram analysis.

Tahuti: a geometrical sketch recognition system for UML class diagrams

TL;DR: Tahuti is a dual-view sketch recognition environment for class diagrams in UML based on a multi-layer recognition framework which recognizes multi-stroke objects by their geometrical properties allowing users the freedom to draw naturally as they would on paper rather than requiring the user to draw the objects in a pre-defined manner.

Generating multiple new designs from a sketch

TL;DR: Sketch IT as discussed by the authors is a program that transforms a single sketch of a mechanical device into multiple families of new designs using a parametric model augmented with constraints that ensure the desired behavior.

JavaSketchIt: Issues in Sketching the Look of User Interfaces

TL;DR: Besides a measurable speed advantage in drawing interfaces, users found the JavaSketchIt system more comfortable, natural and intuitive to use, than the competing product, as demonstrated by post‐experiment inquiries.

Statistical Visual Language Models for Ink Parsing

TL;DR: An algorithm for ink parsing that uses a statistical model to disambiguate and a declarative grammar for the language, generating a model from the grammar, and training the model on drawing examples is developed.

Sketch Grammars: a formalism for describing and recognizing diagrammatic sketch languages

TL;DR: This paper proposes a grammar formalism, namely Sketch Grammars (SkGs), for describing both the shape of the symbols' language and the syntax of sketch languages, which are automatically generated from the sketch grammar descriptions.
