Object interpretation: extending and validating object recognition

1) Extract image measurements for candidate primitives of type points, contours, and regions 2) Score combinations of primitive candidates by their comparability with learned relations. 3) Select the maximum-score combination as the final interpretation of the object structure. • local intensity extrema • parallelism and continuity between two contours • containment of point feature in region • ‘ends-in’ relation between contour and point/region • Cover of point feature by contour • Segmentation and texture support along contours and between contours The Interpretation process:
