An IKBS Approach to Image Understanding,

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA151992 | Open PDF

Abstract:

This memorandum describes a method for extracting 2-Dimensional and 3-Dimensional shapes from scenes made up entirely of straight line segments. A new approach to extracting boundaries is discussed, and a methodology for defining geometrical shapes in PROLOG illustrated. Emphasis is placed on the structuring and control strategy for efficient implementation, and the applicability of IKBS methods to this is demonstrated. Author
