This study aims to address the research gap in the digital analysis of traditional patterns by proposing an image-processing-driven parametric modeling method that combines graphic primitive function modeling with topological reconstruction. The image is processed using a dual-channel image processing algorithm (Canny edge detection and grayscale mapping) to extract and vectorize graphic primitives. These primitives are uniformly represented using B-spline curves, with variations generated through parametric control. A topological reconstruction approach is introduced, incorporating mapped geometric parameters, topological combination rules, and geometric adjustments to output topological configurations. The generated patterns are evaluated using fractal dimension analysis for complexity quantification and applied in cultural heritage imaging practice. The proposed image processing pipeline enables flexible parametric control and continuous structural integration of the graphic primitives and demonstrates high reproducibility and expandability. This study establishes a novel computational framework for traditional patterns, offering a replicable technical pathway that integrates image processing, parametric modeling, and topological reconstruction for digital expression, stylistic innovation, and heritage conservation.
