A region analysis subsystem was developed recently based on the work of Brice and Fennema, and Yakiaovsky. Using this subsystem a series of experiments was c~nducted to determine good criteria for initially partitioning a scene into atomic regions and merging these regions into a final partition of the scene along object boundaries. Semantic (proble.dependent) knowledge is essential for complete, correct partitions of complex real-world scenes. An interactive approach to semantic scene segaentation was developed and demonstrated on both landscape and indoor scenes. This approach provides a reasonable methodology for segmenting s99nes that cannot be processed completely automatically at present and is a promising basis for a future fully automatic system.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1975/108","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1975/0108.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1975/108.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1975/bibtex/108","volume":{"slug":"1975","title":"Proceedings of the Fourth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1975","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1975/","year":1975,"location":"Tbilisi, Georgia, USSR","dates":"","editors":"Patrick Winston and Carl Hewitt","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Visual Information Processing","track":"Visual Information Processing","number":108,"pages":{"first":682,"last":686},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
