Characteristics and architectural components of Visual Information Systems -- Active visual information systems -- Towards direct mapping between visual information worlds and real worlds -- Visual data processing in multimedia systems -- Design of a distributed planetary image data archive based on an ATM network -- An object-oriented model for a visual information system of patient folders -- “Filmification” of methods and film databases -- Chain code-based shape representation and similarity measure -- Content-based retrieval using random verification of 1D cellular automata images -- Extracting complex tissues of MRI brain images using conjugate transformation for medical visual information systems -- A uniform framework for feature-based indexing and retrieval in visual information systems -- Navigational exploration and declarative queries in a prototype for visual information systems -- Incorporating typed links in a visual search tool for images on the Web -- Automatic acquisition of object models by relational learning -- System design for structured hypermedia generation.
This book is a thoroughly arranged anthology outlining the state of the art in the emerging area of visual informationsystems. The chapters presented are a selection of thoroughly refereed and revised full papers first presented at the First International Conference on visual Information Systems held in February 1996. Next generation information systems have a high visual content, and there will be a shift in emphasis from a paradigm of predominantly alphanumeric data processing to one of visual information processing. The book provides a detailed introductory chapter, two keynotes by leading authorities, sections on design and architecture, database management and modelling, contend-based search and retrieval, feature extraction and indexing, query model and interface, and object recognition and content organization.
