CONCLUSION

67

We introduced AI-Sketcher, a hybrid deep

learning model to automatically generate high

quality sketch drawings .

Our model improves drawing quality by

• employing a CNN-based autoencoder to

capture the positional information.

• introducing an influence layer to more

precisely guide the generation of each stroke.

• provideding a conditional vector to support

multi-class sketch generation.
