چکیده

Traditionally, interpreting spectral images is a problem of quantitative analyses which requires comparing known patterns with input images to identify which patterns may be contained by the images. Because spectral image data are always inaccurate, it is very hard to get highly correct interpretation by only using quantitative analyses. In this paper, we present a method of interpreting spectral images by using qualitative reasoning. First, on the basis of qualitative features of spectral images and e ects among data(called qualitative connections among data), partial components that may be contained by input images are identi ed. Then, the identi ed partial components are re ned by a subjective probabilistic approach. The method has been applied to a practical system for infrared spectral image interpretation, and the system has been fully tested against several hundred real spectral images.

Qualitative Interpretation of Spectral Images: Reasoning with Uncertain Evidence

Interpreting spectral images requires comparing known patterns with input data (images) to identify which patterns are contained in the input data. In practice, however, it is hard to identify any pattern when the inaccuracy of input data is not slight. In this paper, we present a method for interpreting spectral images by using qualitative reasoning. First, we put forward a new concept called ...
