Method and system for image conversion

A non-transitory computer readable media storing instructions programmed to cooperate with electronic computer hardware and software to perform operations for generating vector images of objects within a first image in a raster format, the operations comprising:

• preprocessing the first image to form a second image;
• converting the second image into grayscale to create a third image;
• denoising and smoothing the third image to create a fourth image;
• creating a fifth image based on the fourth image by at least adding borders to the objects in the third image;
• first determining a layering of the objects within the fifth image;
• highlighting the objects in the fifth image to create a sixth image;
• generating a graph schema based on the fifth and/or sixth image, the graph schema representing the objects, relationships between individual ones of the objects, and context of use of the objects;
• identifying, based on the graph schema and the relationships across the entities, edges of the objects within the sixth image;
• ungrouping the sixth image based on the identified edges of the objects;
• and wherein the ungrouping generates an individual vector image for each of the objects.
