TLDR
EyeSeeYou is designed, a sketch recognition system that teaches users to draw eyes using a simple drawing technique and provides rigorous feedback to create a constructive learning environment to aid the user in improving her drawing.Abstract:
Drawing is a common form of communication and a means of artistic expression. Many of us believe that the ability to draw accurate representations of objects is a skill that either comes naturally or is the result of hours of study or practice or both. As a result many people become intimidated when confronted with the task of drawing. Many books and websites have been developed to teach people step-by-step skills to draw various objects, but they lack the live feedback of a human examiner. We designed EyeSeeYou, a sketch recognition system that teaches users to draw eyes using a simple drawing technique. The system automatically evaluates the freehand drawn sketch of an eye at various stages during creation. We conducted frequent evaluations of the system in order to take an iterative development approach based on user feedback. Our system balances the flexibility of free-hand drawing with step-by-step instructions and realtime assessment. It also provides rigorous feedback to create a constructive learning environment to aid the user in improving her drawing. This paper describes the implementation details of the sketch recognition system. A similar implementation method could be used to provide sketching tutorials for a wide number of images.read more

Unique morphology of the human eye and its adaptive meaning: comparative studies on external morphology of the primate eye.
Hiromi Kobayashi,Shiro Kohshima +1 more
TL;DR: Comparing the external morphology of the primate eye by measuring nearly half of all extant primate species suggested that the dark coloration of exposed sclera of nonhuman primates is an adaptation to camouflage the gaze direction against other individuals and/or predators, and that the white sClera of the human eye is an adaptations to enhance the gaze signal.

PaleoSketch: accurate primitive sketch recognition and beautification
Brandon Paulson,Tracy Hammond +1 more
TL;DR: A new low-level recognition and beautification system that can recognize eight primitive shapes, as well as combinations of these primitives, with recognition rates at 98.56% and automatically generates beautified versions of these shapes to provide feedback early in the sketching process is proposed.

SketchREAD: a multi-domain sketch recognition engine
Christine Alvarado,Randall Davis +1 more
TL;DR: SketchREAD, a multi-domain sketch recognition engine capable of recognizing freely hand-drawn diagrammatic sketches, is presented and it is found that in both domains the use of context to reclassify low-level shapes significantly reduced recognition error over a baseline system that did not reinterpret low- level classifications.
