A method includes capturing an image of a scene that includes a diagram. The method further includes applying functional block recognition rules to image data of the image to recognize functional blocks of the diagram. The functional blocks include at least a first functional block associated with a first computer operation. The method further includes determining whether the functional blocks comply with functional block syntax rules. A functional graph is computer-generated based on the functional blocks complying with the functional block syntax rules. The functional graph corresponds to the diagram, and the functional graph includes the functional blocks.
