Claim 17:
18. A method comprising:
identifying, based on a user selection, a vector image comprising a vector pattern;
performing hierarchical sampling to generate sample data points from the vector image;
determining input clusters from the sample data points, the input clusters spatially corresponding to vector elements of the vector pattern based on cluster identifiers;
synthesizing output clusters of synthetic data points spatially arranged for corresponding to additional vector elements by clustering synthetic data points utilizing an optimization model until a stopping criterion is met based on link energies between output clusters and shape energies between input clusters and output clusters by:
performing sample switching by switching a synthetic data point from a first output cluster to a second output cluster adjacent to the first output cluster;
performing cluster merging by merging two or more separate output clusters; and
performing cluster splitting by splitting an output cluster into two or more output clusters; and

generating a new vector image comprising a synthetic version of the vector pattern by digitally reconstructing the additional vector elements based on the output clusters.
