Knowledge-based Image Understanding

چکیده

This paper introduces a novel approach to knowledge-based understanding of images. Our system maintains common-sense knowledge of many situations and uses this knowledge to analyze the input images and allows us to query the system for interesting inferences. The domain that we have chosen to implement our system deals with the images of pre-historic cave art. However, the approach is equally applicable to any domain where we can use common-sense knowledge to interpret and understand images. Our approach uses a frame-based representation to encode knowledge. Some of inferences that it allows are generating possible goals for actors and actions portrayed in the images, retrieving images of events occurring after/before the event in question, making a story-line of images form a given set of images, etc.

The Combinational Use Of Knowledge-Based Methods and Morphological Image Processing in Color Image Face Detection

The human facial recognition is the base for all facial processing systems. In this work a basicmethod is presented for the reduction of detection time in fixed image with different color levels.The proposed method is the simplest approach in face spatial localization, since it doesn’trequire the dynamics of images and information of the color of skin in image background. Inaddition, to do face...

Knowledge-Based Image Understanding: A Rule-Based Production System for X-Ray Segmentation

Image Understanding (IU) concerns the issues of how to interpret images. Knowledge-based image understanding studies the theory and techniques of computational image understanding, which uses explicit, independent knowledge about the images, such as their context and objects in them, as well as knowledge about the imaging system. Two related disciplines, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Image P...

A Knowledge - based System Integrating Speech and Image Understanding – Manual Version 1 . 0 –

We present a system that integrates speech and image understanding in the domain of a construction task. Knowledge needed to interpret speech and images is stored in one homogeneous knowledge base using the semantic network formalism ERNEST. It provides a means for constraint propagation and therefore – using a uniform representation of the information gained from real input data – the speech a...
