Play the game at illustrator-game.com!

Overview

The Illustrator project is organized into 3 parts

Sketch Classification:

• Given a snapshot of a drawing, what is the most likely word that the user is drawing?
• MobileNet trained over 20 classes

Sketch Generation:

• Given a word, non-deterministically generate a sketch of that word
• Implementation of Sketch-RNN based on this paper.

Application Architecture:

• The web infrastructure technologies holding up the application and game server

Technologies Used:

Python-socketio

• Allows for communication in two directions (server <-> client)
• Rooms for games

Aiohttp/Asyncio

• Enables asynchronous socket handlers and coroutines between client and server
• Switched to this after having a problem with handling synchronous handlers
