A Rule-Based Expert System for Image Segmentation

Based on the principle of an expert system,a new method for image segmen-tation is presented.General knowledge about image segmentation is represented asproduction rules,the region property of the image is described by semantic network.The data-directed method is used as the control strategy of the system.We realizethis system on microcomputer IBM-PC/XT using LISP language.Some results aregiven in the paper.
