Description

• Goal: Given a 2D closed shape (closed polygon) find its midcurve (polyline, closed or open)
• Input: set of points or set of connected lines, non-intersecting, simple, convex, closed polygon
• Output: another set of points or set of connected lines, open/branched polygons possible

ToDos

• Based on code at https://github.com/yogeshhk/MidcurveNN/tree/master/src/simpleencoderdecoder prepare Trainer class to train model using dataset uploaded here. Push model here
• Prepare Gradio demo space here as well as inferencing API which takes profile image and generates midcurve image
