Research abstract
VEXCEL CORP PROPOSES A PHASE I RESEARCH EFFORT TO DEMONSTRATE THE FEASIBILITY OF A SYMBOLIC MODEL-BASED APPROACH FOR CHANGE DETECTION AND EXTRACTION OF MILITARY TERRAIN FEATURES IN SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR (SAR) IMAGERY THE PHASE I EFFORT WILL CONCERN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A RULE/FRAM BASED DESCRIPTION OF QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF ONE SINGLE FEATURE TYPE, AND DEMONSTRATIONS OF ITS EXTRACTION USING SUITABLE, LOW-LEVEL IMAGE PROCESSING PROCEDURES. THE PHASE II SYSTEM WILL BE ENTIRELY HOSTED ON A SUN-4 HARDWARE PLATFORM UNDER UNIX/C AND NEXPERT SOFTWARE ENVIRONMENT. THE PHASE I FEASIBILITY DEMONSTRATION OF THE SYMBOLIC PROCESSING WILL USE NEXPERT OBJECT V1.1 HOSTED ON THE MACINTOSH IIX, WITH THE IMAGE PROCESSING PROCEDURES HOSTED ON A SUN-4.
