Run Length Coding for Image Analysis.

Abstract

Image coding techniques which have proven to be useful for transmission purposes have seldom been applied to image analysis. This report examines the application of one such technique, run-length encoding, to problems in the scene analysis domain. Several operations within a run-length encoded data structure are discussed, including area access, region growing, edge following, and corner identification. (Author)
