Abstract
An image including a chart displaying graphical elements may be received or captured by a computing device. The graphical elements, for example, may be bars of a bar chart, or components of a pie chart. Techniques described herein may determine values for the graphical elements. Techniques described herein may also analyze the arrangement of the graphical elements and other contextual information to determine a chart type. The generated values may be arranged into an editable chart and/or an editable data structure based on the chart type. Touch-enabled gestures may be applied to the data structure to allow a user to modify, save or otherwise process the data structure.
