Image understanding environments
Daryl T. Lawton, Christopher C. McConnell · Proceedings of the IEEE · 1988
The organization and the functional components of software environments that have been developed for image understanding (IU) are described. The basic components of general IU environments are detailed with respect to representations, programming constructs, system-specific databases and user interfaces. How these components have been realized in different systems through examples and possible developments in the near future are discussed.>
