Generating customized arrow heads utilizing deep learning

Abstract

The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media that provide a digital design interface for intuitively creating custom arrows that demonstrate both visual consistency and inherent directionality within vector-based design applications. In particular, in one or more implementations, the disclosed systems receive a request to create a custom arrow from a digital object and a path segment. In addition, the disclosed systems detect that the digital object is within a threshold distance of the path segment and combine the digital object with the path segment to create a custom arrow object. In particular, the disclosed systems utilize a bilateral segmentation machine-learning model to segment the digit object and a symmetry axis detection model to determine an axis of symmetry of the digital object. Moreover, the disclosed systems attach the digital object to an endpoint of the path segment at the axis of symmetry.
