    摘要: A program generator including: a character/figure separating device for separating characters and line graphics from an input flowchart image. A character recognizing device performs character recognition on the separated character portion and a figure recognizing device extracts symbols from the line graphics. A program code generating device generates instructions corresponding to the symbols and generates a program code by combining the generated instructions with the results of the character recognition that corresponds to the positions in which the symbols have been extracted. In the program generator, an image signifying the procedure of program processing which is composed of characters and line graphics, represented in a format easy for users to understand, is separated into an image in the character region and an image in the line graphics region and those images are subjected to individual recognition, with the results of recognition being combined to generate a coded program that is compatible with automatic machine processing. Hence, a desired computer program can be prepared by simple steps in a rapid and accurate way.

    摘要: An image processing system 10 includes an array (12) of detectors 14, each of which is designed to produce a current proportional to incident radiation. This system provides image processing at a viable sampling rate even for very large arrays and permits very efficient determination of single element detections.The modulation functions supplied from a weighted summer (18). The weighted summer applies an invertible matrix of weights to a series of orthonormal Walsh functions defined over a predetermined sampling interval, the Walsh functions being generated by a function generator (16).The modulated outputs of the array are combined by a summer (20) and distributed among parallel channels by a divider (22). Correlators (24) correlate the signal in each channel with a respective one of the original Walsh functions. The correlated outputs are digitized by analog-to-digital converters for transmission and processing by a digital processor (28). The processor can at least partially reconstruct the detected spatial distribution for output to a display (30).

    摘要: Analog signals corresponding to color images or pixels of a thin section of a rock reservoir are digitized and then filtered to isolate the pixels representative of pores in the thin section. The pores so isolated are then counted, measured for their total pore perimeter and labelled.Each area of pixels representative of pores of value one is progressively eroded and dilated, pursuant to which one layer of pixels of ones on the perimeter of the area is converted to zeros and, if a seed pixel remains, one layer of pixels of ones is added to the perimeter of the area. Thereafter, the original object undergoes two successive erosions followed by two dilations if a seed pixel remains. Successive iterations of the erosion and dilation cycle continue until the last erosion eliminates the seed pixel of the area. The numbewr of pixels of ones lost with each degree of erosion constitutes a pore spectrum consisting of information relating to the total amount of pore image lost each erosion-dilation cycle, the pore size lost each erosion-dilation cycle and the pore roughness lost each cycle.The spectra devleoped from the erosion-dilation cycle and corresponding to each pore complex are then analyzed into end members and the end member proportions for each field of view are calculated.

    摘要: A defect detection system for classifying defects in reticles (such as used in the manufacture of integrated circuit wafers) is described. An inspection unit, scanning the reticle in real time, compares it with the correct form and inputs signals representing each defect and its position in a store. The stored defects are then used to direct the inspection unit to inspect each defect more slowly. The inspection unit classifies each defect as either being an "excess metal" or a "missing metal" defect, and corresponding signals are stored in respective additional stores. The signals stored in these stores are then further processed and compared with the desired form of the reticle so as to classify the "excess metal" defects as either being a "pin spot" defect, an "extension" defect or a "bridge-type" defect. Similarly, the "missing metal" defects are classified as either being a "pinhole" defect an "intrusion" defect or a "break-type" defect. A size measuring unit measures the size of each defect.

    摘要: A method of creating a view of a curved line projected onto a curved surface in a CAD system by using a vector discrimination technique which reduces computation steps required for projection. The curved line and the curved surface are divided into a group of straight line segments and a group of planar surfaces, respectively. One of the straight line segments is selected and a first vector is formed at an end of the straight line segment. After a discrimination process using the first vector, a combination of one straight line segment and one planar surface pointed to by the first vector is obtained, and the projection operation starts with this combination. Second and third vectors are then formed at both ends of an edge of the planar surface. The straight line segments within the range delineated by the second and third vectors are projected onto the planar surface. If there is a straight line segment falling outside the range, the next planar surface is selected and the excessive part of the line segment is projected onto the newly selected planar surface. The projection operation thus continues until all the straight line segments are projected on the planar surfaces.

    摘要: This invention comprises a system for calculating at least one vehicular traffic check parameter. The system according to the invention includes a pulse modulated radar placed at a high point at the side of the lanes to be monitored. The radar emits pulses having a frequency f.sub.o and width .tau. according to a radiation diagram. The radiation diagram is narrow in plan and sufficiently wide in elevation to cover all lanes to be monitored, and inclined in elevation and plan such that at least one range bin of the radar is included in a lane. Echo signals received by the radar are then processed by a signal processing module and a parameter extraction module. The invention is particularly useful in automobile traffic, for calculation of the number of vehicles travelling in lanes, the vehicles speed and length, etc. The advantage of the this inventive system compared with previous systems is that it enables simultaneous checking of several traffic lanes.

    摘要: A computerized method and system for reducing the number of false-positive detections of nodule candidates in the detection of abnormalities in digital chest radiography. The image is initially subjected to an image difference technique where the detection sensitivity is increased so as to avoid missing small nodules which might otherwise go undetected. Such a technique tends to increase the number of false-positives, however, leading to possible incorrect diagnoses of the radiographs. To reduce the number of false-positives, feature extraction techniques are applied to grown regions around the nodule candidates, in order to provide computer generated information concerning the candidates. A data base of parameters common to false-positives is compared to calculated parameters of a candidate of interest. The candidates with grown region parameters within the data base range common to false-positives are eliminated as being probable false-positive detections due to normal background anatomical features.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for the automatically inspecting the contours of a gear for manufacturing errors. According to the method, a gear to be inspected is imaged on an imaging surface to form a gear image. A digitized image indicative of the gear image is generated. The digitized image comprises a plurality of pixels. The pixels each have a gray value and coordinates which represent the location of the pixel within the digitized image. Each pixel is classified into a first or a second class by comparing the gray value of the pixel to a predetermined threshold value. The coordinates of pixels corresponding to the contours of the gear are determined from the classes of pixels. The manufacturing errors of the gear are calculated by comparing the coordinates of the pixels corresponding to the contours of the gear to a standard gear pattern. The apparatus, in its preferred embodiment, includes a base and collimated light source to illuminate the gear, a microscope to magnify an image of the gear and a CCD camera to generate a digitized image indicative of the magnified gear image. A digital computer is also included to assign a gray value to each pixel in the digitized image, to classify each pixel into a first or second class by comparing the gray value of the pixel with a predetermined threshold value, to determine the coordinates of pixels corresponding to the contours of the gear and to calculate the manufacturing errors of the gear by comparing the coordinates of pixels corresponding to the contours of the gear with a standard gear pattern. The manufacturing errors include runout error, pitch error and profile error.

    摘要: In electronic reproduction technology, a recognition circuit for hues and colors in colored surfaces is provided. Before the actual hue recognition, the hue to be recognized is selected and its prescribed or measured color values of the RGB color space are transformed by a first color transformation into chrominance values of the chrominance/luminance color space, whereby the transformation coefficients are defined such that the transformed color locus of the hue to be recognized lies on a rotated X'Y' color coordinate system in the chrominance plane. During the actual hue recognition, the colored surface is opto-electronically scanned and the measured color values acquired are transformed into chrominance values by a second color transformation with the transformation coefficients defined in the first color transformation. By selection of chrominance values and by quotient formation of the selected chrominance values, a hue signal which is a measure for hue deviation of the scanned hues from the hue to be recognized is generated. After combination of the hue signal with an auxiliary control signal, a hue recognition signal is formed, this being unequal to zero when the scanned hues lie within a sector-shaped hue recognition region. For color recognition, a color saturation signal and a luminance signal are additionally generated. The color saturation signal and luminance signal are adjustably limited in terms of amplitude and are combined with the hue recognition signal to form a color recognition signal.
