NONLINEAR REPRESENTATIONS FOR VECTOR OBJECTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17960582 titled 'NONLINEAR REPRESENTATIONS FOR VECTOR OBJECTS
The abstract describes techniques for creating nonlinear representations of vector objects using a nonlinear vector graph. This allows for the construction of vector objects by connecting points with primitives in a nonlinear manner. The vector object can be edited by modifying the nonlinear vector graph before being displayed in a user interface.

Original Abstract Submitted
Techniques for nonlinear representations for vector objects are described that support construction of a nonlinear vector graph to represent a vector object. In an implementation, a user input is received including a plurality of points and at least one primitive. A content processing system then generates a vector object by constructing a nonlinear vector graph that specifies a nonlinear connection of the plurality of points with the at least one primitive. In some examples, the vector object is edited by applying an edit to the nonlinear vector graph. Once generated, the content processing system then outputs the vector object for display, e.g., in a user interface.
