Abstract :
We present a discrete labeling scheme for line drawings of curved objects which can be seen as an information-rich extension of the classic line-labeling scheme in which lines are classified as convex, concave, occluding, or extremal. New labels are introduced to distinguish between curved and planar surface-patches, to identify orthogonal edges and to indicate gradient directions of planar surface-patches.
