Alvey MMI-007 Vehicle Exemplar: Object Hypothesis by Evidential Reasoning
نویسنده
چکیده
Firstly the need for an approach to the design of an integrated vision system incorporating both bottom-up and top-down techniques is explained. Secondly two theories that may be applied in such a system, namely fuzzy conceptual schemas and support logic, are expounded. Thirdly a program utilising such tools and envisaged as a prototype generalised vision system is described. Fourthly results obtained for a restricted domain of images are commented upon.

Alvey MMI-007 Vehicle Exemplar: Image Segmentation and Attribute Generation
The MMI-007 project uses both bottom-up and top-down strategies to deal with the difficult problem of object recognition in outdoor scenes. Within this scheme, bottom-up methods fulfil the requirements of providing a concise image description suitable for symbolic reasoning and of providing an initial set of hypotheses to 'bootstrap' the top-down processes. The nature of the imagery does not le...
متن کاملPerformance & Limitations
One of the visual tasks adopted as an "exemplar" for techniques by the Alvey MMI-007 consortium has been the detection and identification of vehicles in natural scenes. We have adopted a knowledge-based approach to the task, which seeks to explain the 2-D image in terms of known context and known geometry of the 3-D object being identified. This approach differs markedly from the more familiar ...
متن کاملAlvey MM 1-007 Vehicle Exemplar: The Development of Reasoning Strategies
An overview of the current status and research directions of the vehicle exemplar is given. We discuss the function of the component modules of the vision system, and the need to integrate the operation of diverse knowledge sources in visual recognition of vehicles. The concept of a reasoning strategy is introduced and illustrated. The identification of effective reasoning strategies appropriat...
متن کاملAlvey MMI-007 Vehicle Exemplar: The Knowledge Based Approach
Since the seminal work of Roberts (1965), sceneunderstanding research has continued to be dominated by two main themes: the measurement of local attributes of the image to identify features which characterise objects in the scene, and the use of prior expectations, often explicitly expressed as models, to guide the interrogation of the image. The two themes correspond to the distinction between...
متن کاملUse of Machine Learning to Generate Rules
The use of Machine Learning techniques applied to visual data is described, within the context of an Alvey exemplar to detect cars in outdoor scenes. A Similarity-Based Learning scheme is employed, that uses segmented images containing cars, to produce rules which are subsequently able to label unknown images. The method is shown to be useful in developing a suitable Knowledge Representation fo...
