Fuzzy Spatial Relationships for Model-Based Pattern Recognition in Images and Spatial Reasoning Under Imprecision

چکیده

We show in this paper that mathematical morphology provides a unified and consistent framework to express different types of spatial relationships and to answer different questions about them, with good properties. We show then how to use these fuzzy relationships in modelbased pattern recognition and spatial reasoning under imprecision. Two examples are presented, one where recognition of face features is expressed as non bijective correspondence between graphs representing regions and spatial relations, and one where anatomical expert knowledge involving spatial relationships is used to guide the recognition of brain structures.

Fusion of spatial relationships for guiding recognition, example of brain structure recognition in 3D MRI

Spatial relations play an important role in recognition of structures embedded in a complex environment and for reasoning under imprecision. Several types of relationships can be modeled in a unified way using fuzzy mathematical morphology. Their combination benefits from the powerful framework of fuzzy set theory for fusion tasks and decision making. This paper presents several methods of fusi...

Fuzzy spatial relationships for image processing and interpretation: a review

In spatial reasoning, relationships between spatial entities play a major role. In image interpretation, computer vision and structural recognition, the management of imperfect information and of imprecision constitutes a key point. This calls for the framework of fuzzy sets, which exhibits nice features to represent spatial imprecision at different levels, imprecision in knowledge and knowledg...

Spatial reasoning under imprecision using fuzzy set theory, formal logics and mathematical morphology

In spatial reasoning, in particular for applications in image understanding, structure recognition and computer vision, a lot of attention has to be paid to spatial relationships and to the imprecision attached to information and knowledge to be handled. Two main components are knowledge representation and reasoning. We show in this paper that the fuzzy set framework associated to the formalism...

مدل‌سازی روابط توپولوژیک سه بعدی فازی در محیط GIS

Nowadays, geospatial information systems (GIS) are widely used to solve different spatial problems based on various types of fundamental data: spatial, temporal, attribute and topological relations. Topological relations are the most important part of GIS which distinguish it from the other kinds of information technologies. One of the important mechanisms for representing topological relations...
