Generating a vector representation of a hand-drawn sketch is described. To do so, the sketch is segmented into different superpixel regions. Superpixels are grown by distributing superpixel seeds throughout an image of the sketch and assigning unassigned pixels to a neighboring superpixel based on pixel value differences. The border between each pair of adjacent superpixels is then classified as either an active or an inactive boundary, with active boundaries indicating that the border corresponds to a salient sketch stroke. Vector paths are generated by traversing edges between pixel vertices along the active boundaries. To minimize vector paths included in the vector representation, vector paths are greedily generated first for longer curves along active boundaries until each edge is assigned to a vector path. Regions encompassed by vector paths corresponding to a foreground superpixel are filled to produce a high-fidelity vector representation of the sketch.
