And: CMetImAly77(435-444). Segmentation, Knowledge. System: IGS. The key idea is that image elements can be reliably clustered into regions if semantic interpretations are used in addition to the raw image values. This builds on the interpretation ideas of MSYS ( See also MSYS: A System for Reasoning about Scenes. ). Unlike the work in Yakimovsky and Feldman, the relations between different types of regions are either possible or impossible. Initial interpretations are based on the image data, but extra interpretations at this point are not harmful. An iterative procedure is used to eliminate interpretations that are not valid given all the possible interpretations of the neighbors. When adjacent regions have the same interpretation they can be merged. This method requires a very specific model of the possible scene to provide any benefit. BibRef

Boundaries between regions handled by pixel level analysis - initial expansion is based on features over larger areas. BibRef 8000
