Converting paper-based engineering drawings into CAD model files is a tedious process. Therefore, automating the conversion
of such drawings represents tremendous time and labor savings. We present a complete system which interprets such 2D paper-based
engineering drawings, and outputs 3D models that can be displayed as wireframes. The system performs the detection of dimension
sets, the extraction of object lines, and the assembly of 3D objects from the extracted object lines. A knowledge-based method
is used to remove dimension sets and text from ANSI engineering drawings, a graphics recognition procedure is used to extract
complete object lines, and an evidential rule-based method is utilized to identify view relationships. While these methods
are the subject of several of our previous papers, this paper focuses on the 3D interpretation of the object. This is accomplished
using a technique based on evidential reasoning and a wide range of rules and heuristics. The system is limited to the interpretation
of objects composed of planar, spherical, and cylindrical surfaces. Experimental results are presented.

By integrating human intelligence and enabling geometric modeling and knowledge based systems technologies, a realistic and plausible solution for two critical activities in a legacy data conversion cycle of engineering drawings (LDC): vector drawing editing and high level symbol interpretation was investigated. A prototype system called LEDCONS was implemented to illustrate the concepts and demonstrate the feasibility of the architecture and methodologies proposed. In this paper, the concepts and methods used by LEDCONS to perform syntactic level drawing interpretations are presented. The LEDCONS system modules at this level are designed based on the strategy that drawing interpretation could be embedded within the process of human editing in an interactive fashion. Two fundamental approaches, the automatic search-and-match approach and the manual select-and-recognize approach, used for recognizing drawing constructs at this level are proposed. With syntactically related drawing constructs, such as text blocks, hatch patterns, dimension sets, FCF/datum constructs, and geometry entities are extracted. Hence, the reusability and reliability of the drawing data can be significantly increased. 相似文献

An improvement to a method of extracting line and region information from technical drawings is presented. A scheme for compressing this information as it is being found is also given. The encoding scheme is based on a combination of run-length codes, direction chain codes, and Huffman codes. It is efficient, requires minimal storage, and achieves favorable compression ratios. Experimental results from four typical line drawings are presented. 相似文献

With the increasing use of computers in the area of design and manufacture, a major problem being faced by the industry today is that of getting existing product information in the form of paper drawings into a suitable computer data base. This paper presents techniques for preprocessing and vectorizing scan digitized images of engineering drawings for automatically transferring the resulting data to commercially available CAD/CAM systems. The preprocessing steps include noise removal, void filling, image segmentation, line thinning and contour extraction. Algorithms for raster-to-vector conversion capable of recognizing and fitting straight-line segments, circles, arcs, and conic sections are presented along with results obtained from actual machine drawings. 相似文献

An object-oriented progressive-simplification-based vectorization system for engineering drawings: model, algorithm, and performance 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Existing vectorization systems for engineering drawings usually take a two-phase workflow: convert a raster image to raw vectors and recognize graphic objects from the raw vectors. The first phase usually separates aground truth graphic object that intersects or touches other graphic objects into several parts, thus, the second phase faces the difficulty of searching for and merging raw vectors belonging to the same object. These operations slow down vectorization and degrade the recognition quality. Imitating the way humans read engineering drawings, we propose an efficient one-phase object-oriented vectorization model that recognizes each class of graphic objects from their natural characteristics. Each ground truth graphic object is recognized directly in its entirety at the pixel level. The raster image is progressively simplified by erasing recognized graphic objects to eliminate their interference with subsequent recognition. To evaluate the performance of the proposed model, we present experimental results on real-life drawings and quantitative analysis using third party protocols. The evaluation results show significant improvement in speed and recognition rate. 相似文献

Reconstruction of curved solids from engineering drawings 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
This paper presents a new approach for reconstructing solids with planar, quadric and toroidal surfaces from three-view engineering drawings. By applying geometric theory to 3-D reconstruction, our method is able to remove restrictions placed on the axes of curved surfaces by existing methods. The main feature of our algorithm is that it combines the geometric properties of conics with affine properties to recover a wider range of 3-D edges. First, the algorithm determines the type of each 3-D candidate conic edge based on its projections in three orthographic views, and then generates that candidate edge using the conjugate diameter method. This step produces a wire-frame model that contains all candidate vertices and candidate edges. Next, a maximum turning angle method is developed to find all the candidate faces in the wire-frame model. Finally, a general and efficient searching technique is proposed for finding valid solids from the candidate faces; the technique greatly reduces the searching space and the backtracking incidents. Several examples are given to demonstrate the efficiency and capability of the proposed algorithm. 相似文献

Sparse-pixel recognition of primitives in engineering drawings 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Recognition of primitives in technical drawings is the first stage in their higher level interpretation. It calls for processing
of voluminous scanned raster files. This is a difficult task if each pixel must be addressed at least once, as required by
Hough transform or thinning-based methods. This work presents a set of algorithms that recognize drawing primitives by examining
the raster file sparsely. Bars (straight line segments), arcs, and arrowheads are identified by the orthogonal zig-zag, perpendicular
Bisector tracing, and self-supervised arrowhead recognition algorithms, respectively. The common feature of these algorithms
is that rather than applying massive pixel addressing, they recognize the sought primitives by screening a carefully selected
sample of the image and focusing attention on identified key areas. The sparse-pixel-based algorithms yield high quality recognition,
as demonstrated on a sample of engineering drawings. 相似文献

Detection of dimension sets in engineering drawings 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Chan Pyng Lai Kasturi R. 《IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence》1994,16(8):848-855
This correspondence presents a system for detecting dimension sets in engineering drawings that are drawn to ANSI drafting standards. A new rule-based text/graphics separation algorithm and a model-based procedure for detecting arrowheads in any orientation have been developed. Arrowhead tracking and search methods are used to extract leaders, tails, and witness lines from segmented images containing only graphics. Text blocks and feature control frames extracted from the segmented images are than associated with their corresponding leaders to obtain complete dimension sets. Experimental results are presented 相似文献

This paper describes a recognition system for handwritten ZIP Codes currently under development at the Environmental Research Institute of Michigan (ERIM). Included within this system are techniques for preprocessing address block images, locating ZIP Codes, splitting touching characters, and identifying handwritten numerals. These techniques rely on mathematical morphology-based image processing and on hierarchical matching of object models to symbolic image representations. The image processing uses adaptive filtering, thresholding, and skeletonizing to create binary and state-labeled images. The matching process uses these images and extensively developed handwritten digit models to identify ZIP Codes. The end-to-end system has been tested on 500 randomly selected address block images. The system correctly recognized a large portion of the ZIP Codes in the test images (45.0%), and incorrectly classified a very low percentage of isolated handwritten digits (0.9%). Overall performance continues to be improved through incremental digit model refinement.This work was funded by the Office of Advanced Technology, United States Postal Service under contract 104230-86-H-0042. 相似文献
