Image Feature Manuscript Generation.

Abstract : This report describes the Image Feature Manuscript Generation capability developed under RADC Contract F30602-78-C-0017. The capability developed here will serve as an experimental facility on which to evaluate advanced techniques of potential application to the Automatic Feature Extraction System (AFES). This effort has been directed at providing an improved interactive means of classifying photographic imagery and for addressing and displaying graphics for the purpose of automatically categorizing image features, generating feature boundaries, and editing the shapes and locations of those boundaries. Specific attention was given to the development of a region growing capability and to the inclusion of an AFAL-developed atmospheric model. These items are described at length within this report.
