Scene interpretation using learnt concepts

The system SCENIC ("SCENe Interpretation by Configuration")
has been extended in several ways to handle learnt concepts in
low-level and high-level scene interpretation processes.
- A middle layer has been developed which mediates between
low-level image analysis and high-level interpretation. It maps
low-level data to specific object views and allows high-level
hypotheses to control low-level processing.
- A standardised interpretation process has been defined
which combines bottom-up part-whole reasoning with goal-dependent
top-down processing and can cope with incomplete evidence.
- Learnt concepts can be integrated in the SCENIC knowledge
base using the Semantic Web language OWL.
- A GUI has been implemented to control and visualise the
interpretation process.
