Abstract

The recognition of dashed, chained and other broken lines is one of the classic problems in line drawing interpretation; many broken-line extraction algorithms and frameworks have been developed in recent years. The most common approach is to thin a binary image and vectorise the resulting skeleton [17,157]. The approach produces representations that are both closely related to the required output format and well suited to approximation and/or structural/syntactical line recognition. Among its drawbacks are that it is very sensitive to small irregularities in the line’s contour; small branches are produced which must be pruned away afterwards, junctions also may not be properly represented without some noise reduction [122].
