Welcome to Sketch Recognition!

Welcome to CSCE 624 for Fall 2016!

Sketch recognition is the field of automated recognition of hand-drawn diagrams, shapes, and other images by a computer.  Because drawing provides a visual reference, it is an augmentative form of communication used all throughout daily life.    It is pervasive in everything from education and business to healthcare and home.  Like many human forms of communication, while we have mastered the art of drawing and recognizing images, computers still struggle with this ability.  In this class, we will cover multiple sketch-related concepts, beginning with the origins and history of the field up to many more modern approaches.


Posts will follow with more details about the course and the first assignments, but for now, please remember:
  • This blog is the course web page.  Be sure to check regularly as useful information will be posted here throughout the semester regarding assignments and course policies
We should have a lot of fun this semester!
