Summary:The faces in a 2D fine drawing of an object provide important information for the reconstruction of its 3D geometry. In this paper, a graph-based optimization method is proposed for identifying the faces is a line drawing. The face identification is formulated as a maximum weight clique problem. This formulation is proven to be equivalent to the formulation proposed by Shpitalni and Upson (1996). The advantage of our formulation is that it enables one to develop a much faster algorithm to find the faces in a drawing. The significant improvement in speed is derived from two algorithms provided: the depth-first graph search for quickly generating possible faces from a drawing; and the maximum weight clique finding for obtaining the optimal face configurations of the drawing. The experimental results shown that our algorithm generates the same results of face identification as Shpitalni and Lipson's method, but is much faster when dealing with objects of more than 20 faces
