Description
Summary:GUI design is crucial to mobile apps. In the early stages of mobile app development, having access to visually similar apps can help designers and programmers gain inspiration for revising their designs or even reuse existing GUI code. We propose an intuitive sketch modelling language to draw GUI sketches, and a deep learning based method to search for visually similar apps according to the sketches. Preliminary results show the potential of our approach.
