Object-Centered Surface Reconstruction: Combining Multi-Image Stereo and Shading
We argue that an object-centered representation is most appropriate for this purpose becasue it naturally accomodates multiple sources of data, multiple images (including motion sequences of a rigid object), and…

Fast Parallel Surface Interpolation With Applications To Digital Cartography
In this paper, we present a surface interpolation algorithm based on variational splines which is well suited to massively parallel computers.

Recognizing Objects In A Natural Environment: A Contextual Vision (CVS)
We identify a number of weaknesses in current recognition systems and propose specific mechanisms for dealing with some of these problems.
-
Integrated Split/Merge Image Segmentation
The KNIFE segmentation algorithm splits regions along object boundaries, thus avoiding rectangular quadtree artifacts and establishing a context for good statistical decisions.
-
Classification-Based Tracking Of Objects and Material
SRI’s KNIFE image analysis system can be used for tracking objects and material classes from one image to another.
-
Coarse Coding For Material and Object Identification
A new coarse-coding technique is presented for labeling image pixels and regions to match exemplars or multivariate material signatures.
-
Shading Into Texture
The fractal surface model provides a formalism that is competent to describe such natural 3-D surfaces and, in addition, is able to predict human perceptual judgments of smoothness versus roughness.
-
A Morphological Recognizer With Syntactic and Phonological Rules
This paper describes a morphological analyzer which, when parsing a word, uses two sets of rules: describing the syntax of words, and rules describing facts about orthography.

Using Generic Geometric Knowledge To Delineate Cultural Objects In Aerial Imagery
We present a paradigm for discovering the outlines of arbitrarily complex cultural objects in aerial imagery.
-
An Inductive Approach To Figural Perception
An inductive approach consisting of two parts is presented. The first involves a scheme for describing the shapes of curves and surfaces and the second relies on a criterion for…
-
Choosing A Basis For Perceptual Space
If it is possible to interpret an image as a projection of rectangular forms, there is a strong tendency for people to do so. In effect, a mathematical basis for…

Computer-Assisted Analysis of Tomographic Images of the Brain
A computer system for the analysis of computed tomography and positron emission tomography scans of the brain is described.
