The analysis and statistics of line distribution

We gathered more than a thousand different programs from various computer graphics applications on the Internet. We checked program source code one by one and compiled the statistical distributions of line lengths and orientations of the line drawing programs. This article presents our data collection methods, lists the statistical data in detail, and discusses analytical results. We believe that our work will help researchers better understand the properties of line drawing in real applications and improve line scan-conversion methods. Detailed, accurate knowledge of the drawing environment in which an interface or functional capability will be used is the best basis for comparing algorithms or making design decisions about hardware graphics accelerator interfaces and software device driver interfaces.
