Research Instrumentation for Computer Vision, Image Understanding and Optical Computing
Abstract
The following equipment was purchased SUN 3/160 workstation, 2 SUN 3/ 110 workstation memory boards and floating point accelerators, a Microvax II dedicated host computer, TI Explorer II AI workstation. The equipment acquired has greatly improved research productivity in the projects listed by providing up-to-date hardware and software capability. The projects are very closely related and are specifically: Image Processing and Computer Vision; Optical Implementation of Neural Networks for Computer Vision; Nonlinear Optical Information Processing; and Optical Symbolic Computing. Common to all these areas of research is the need for: Extensive numerical simulation and modeling of devices, processors and systems; Computationally intensive transforming and analysis of algorithms performed on large arrays of image and other multidimensional data; Solution of optimization problems involving multidimensional nonlinear equations; Interframe processing between several arrays of image data; and Interactive display, manipulation and plotting of images and graphic representations of the results.
