On the Semantic Labeling of Hand-drawn Sketches.
Gennaro Costagliola, Alberto Greco · Distributed Multimedia Systems · 2008
We propose a preliminary study for the application of Computational Linguistics techniques such as the Semantic Role Labeling of natural languages (SRL) to the case of sketch understanding. The idea of our approach originates from a psychological experiment where two groups of students were asked to produce and then recognize hand-drawn sketches, respectively. The paper presents a procedure to apply Semantic Role Labeling to the case of hand-drawn sketches and provides an example of application. This study seeks to enrich the body of research related to sketch understanding and reasoning.
