SketchyScene: Richly-Annotated Scene Sketches
Our mission is to advance research on sketch understanding at both an object and a scene level.
What is SketchyScene?
SketchyScene is the first large-scale dataset of scene sketches. It consists of a total of 29,056 scene sketches, generated using 7,264 scene templates and 11,316 object sketches. Each object in the scene is further augmented with semantic labels and instance-level masks.
instance segmentation
image retrieval
semantic colorization
speech-to-sketch
USketch
USketch is a web-driven tool for crowdsourcing the SketchyScene dataset. To boost the efficiency of human creators, we devised a customary, web-based application for sketch scene synthesis. We facilitated the creation of the sketchy scene images by allowing the worker to drag, rotate, scale, and deform the component sketch with the guidance of the reference image.
Segmentation
We have conducted preliminary experiments for semantic segmentation with our SketchyScene dataset in TensorFlow.
