KANDIDATS: An interactive image processing system

KANDIDATS is a comprehensive digital image processing system that interacts with the user at a command string level. It includes prompting for parameter input, and checks user input for errors. Image analysis operations available in KANDIDATS consist of utility functions, image transforms, spatial clustering, and Bayesian classification. The versatility and capabilities of KANDIDATB arise h.om a modular programming structure and file structure. These attributes allow processing of images that are a few thousand rows by a few thousand columns in a minicomputer system with only 32K words of main memory.
