Abstract

Mirror symmetry is an important constraint in 3D reconstruction of an object from a 2D sketch and the subsequent beautification of the 3D model. This paper proposes a new method to detect symmetry planes from a sketch by exploiting the topological connections of the edges it contains. Experiments show that the method can detect all the symmetry planes and the corresponding symmetric vertex pairs, edge pairs and face pairs as well.
