A sketch is one of the most intuitive and versatile tools humans use to convey their ideas visually. An animated sketch opens another dimension to the expression of ideas and is widely used by designers for a variety of purposes. Animating…

Humans can intuitively decompose an image into a sequence of strokes to create a painting, yet existing methods for generating drawing processes are limited to specific data types and often rely on expensive human-annotated datasets. We…

We introduce a new method of generating Computer Aided Design (CAD) profiles via a sequence of simple geometric constructions including curve offsetting, rotations and intersections. These sequences start with geometry provided by a…

With the advancement of generative artificial intelligence, previous studies have achieved the task of generating aesthetic images from hand-drawn sketches, fulfilling the public's needs for drawing. However, these methods are limited to…

We introduce the novel problem of localizing all the instances of an object (seen or unseen during training) in a natural image via sketch query. We refer to this problem as sketch-guided object localization. This problem is distinctively…

Inspired by traditional handmade crafts, where a person improvises assemblies based on the available objects, we formally introduce the Craft Assembly Task. It is a robotic assembly task that involves building an accurate representation of…

It can be easy and even fun to sketch humans in different poses. In contrast, creating those same poses on a 3D graphics "mannequin" is comparatively tedious. Yet 3D body poses are necessary for various downstream applications. We seek to…

Artist-drawn sketches only loosely conform to analytical models of perspective projection; the deviation of human-drawn perspective from analytical perspective models is persistent and well documented, but has yet to be algorithmically…

Iteratively refining and critiquing sketches are crucial steps to developing effective designs. We introduce Scones, a mixed-initiative, machine-learning-driven system that enables users to iteratively author sketches from text…

Recent advancements in large vision-language models have enabled highly expressive and diverse vector sketch generation. However, state-of-the-art methods rely on a time-consuming optimization process involving repeated feedback from a…

We present a mathematical and algorithmic scheme for learning the principal geometric elements in an image or 3D object. We build on recent work that convexifies the basic problem of finding a combination of a small number shapes that…

Texture is an essential property of physical objects that affects aesthetics, usability, and functionality. However, designing and applying textures to 3D objects with existing tools remains difficult and time-consuming; it requires…

Sketches have been used to conceptualise and depict visual objects from pre-historic times. Sketch research has flourished in the past decade, particularly with the proliferation of touchscreen devices. Much of the utilisation of sketch has…

Recently, image-to-3D approaches have achieved significant results with a natural image as input. However, it is not always possible to access these enriched color input samples in practical applications, where only sketches are available.…

We tackle a new problem: generating geometrically consistent multi-view scenes from a single freehand sketch. Freehand sketches are the most geometrically impoverished input one could offer a multi-view generator. They convey scene intent…

Traditional approaches for learning 3D object categories use either synthetic data or manual supervision. In this paper, we propose a method which does not require manual annotations and is instead cued by observing objects from a moving…

This work introduces PICASSO, a framework for the parameterization of 2D CAD sketches from hand-drawn and precise sketch images. PICASSO converts a given CAD sketch image into parametric primitives that can be seamlessly integrated into CAD…

The advent of large pre-trained language models has made it possible to make high-quality predictions on how to add or change a sentence in a document. However, the high branching factor inherent to text generation impedes the ability of…

Generating 3D visual scenes is at the forefront of visual generative AI, but current 3D generation techniques struggle with generating scenes with multiple high-resolution objects. Here we introduce Lay-A-Scene, which solves the task of…

Creating and editing the shape and color of 3D objects require tremendous human effort and expertise. Compared to direct manipulation in 3D interfaces, 2D interactions such as sketches and scribbles are usually much more natural and…
