چکیده

In this paper, we present an approach to qualitative description of images containing non-overlapping 2D objects. This approach consists of extracting the properties of the main points of the objects in an image and applying qualitative models to them. Qualitative models of shape and size describe visual features of the objects in the image, while qualitative models of orientation and distance describe spatial features of those objects. Finally, a string which describes the image in qualitative terms is obtained. This string can be used to compute the relationships between the objects in the image and also to compare images by obtaining a degree of similarity between them.

A New Approach for Quantitative Evaluation of Reconstruction Algorithms in SPECT

ABTRACT Background: In nuclear medicine, phantoms are mainly used to evaluate the overall performance of the imaging systems and practically there is no phantom exclusively designed for the evaluation of the software performance.  In this study the Hoffman brain phantom was used for quantitative evaluation of reconstruction techniques. The phantom is modified to acquire t...

Application of Shape Analysis on 3D Images - MRI of Renal Tumors

The image recognotion and the classification of objects according to the images are more in focus of interests, especially in medicine. A mathematical procedure allows us, not only to evaluate the amount of data per se, but also ensures that each image is pro- cessed similarly. Here in this study, we propose the power of shape analysis, in conjunction with neural networks for reducing white n...

Comparison of Different Targets Used in Augmented Reality Applications in Ubiquitous GIS

Drilling requires accurate information about locations of underground infrastructures or it can cause serious damages. Augmented Reality (AR) as a technology in Ubiquitous GIS (UBIGIS) can be used to visualize underground infrastructures on smartphones. Since smartphone’s sensors do not provide such accuracy, another approaches should be applied. Vision based computer vision systems are well kn...

Modeling Cardinal Direction Relations in 3D for Qualitative Spatial Reasoning

Many fundamental geoscience concepts and tasks require advanced spatial knowledge about the topology, orientation, shape, and size of spatial objects. Besides topological and distance relations, cardinal directions also can play a prominent role in the determination of qualitative spatial relations; one of the facets of spatial objects is the determination of relative positioning of objects. In...

Future study of Description System Architecture Approaches with Emphasis on Strategic Management

Systems Architecture is a generic discipline to handle objects (existing or to be created) called systems, in a way that supports reasoning about the structural properties of these objects. Systems Architecture is a response to the conceptual and practical difficulties of the description and the design of complex systems. Systems Architecture is a generic discipline to handle objects (existin...
