Extracting invariant characteristics of sketch maps: Towards place query‐by‐sketch [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions in GIS, 2020
Abstract In geography, invariant aspects of sketches are essential to study because they reflect the human perception of real‐world places. A person's perception of a place can be expressed in sketches. In this article, we quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed the characteristics of single objects and characteristics among objects

Cross-domain 3D Model Retrieval Based on Viewpoint Alignment

open access: yesJournal of Harbin University of Science and Technology, 2023
3D model retrieval with sketches as input is convenient for users to express their retrieval needs, and has become a research hotspot. However, a sketch which is only the rough description of a 3D model from a single viewpoint has high degree of ...

Edge-Guided Cross-Domain Learning with Shape Regression for Sketch-Based Image Retrieval

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Sketch-based image retrieval (SBIR) is a challenging task due to the cross-domain gap between sketch queries and natural images. In this paper, we propose a novel edge-guided cross-domain learning network to reduce the domain gap.

MILITARY SKETCHING AND MAP READING [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association, 1917
The ability to read maps is an absolutely essential qualification of a medical officer. Instructions conveyed to him in the field often contain references to maps. If he is unable to understand these references his efficiency is greatly impaired. Then, too, the question of shelter and cover from fire at distant points at which it might be desirable to ...
