ABSTRACT:
Processing elements (PE1, PE2, etc.) in an image understanding machine are provided with gated connections (GN1, GS1, etc.) between each processing element and its neighbors. The image is loaded into the machine so that each pixel is stored in the memory 302 of each processing element. Unique labels are applied to each processing element in each segmented region (R1, R2) by using a series of some
one tests taking advantage of the gated connections between the processing element of each region. In such manner, higher level processing of the image can be performed.
