“…A number of publications have been devoted to this research in the major computer vision literature [8], [15], [20], [21], [22], [23], [25], [29], [30], [31], [32], [33]. The applications of this research include: flexible sketching input for conceptual designers who tend to prefer pencil and paper to mouse and keyboard [3], [19], [22]; providing rich databases to object recognition systems and reverse engineering algorithms for shape reasoning [2], [3]; automatic conversion of industrial wireframe models to solid models [2], [14]; interactive generation of 3D models from images [13], [20], [35]; friendly user interface for 3D object retrieval [5], [27] .…”
