Abstract

A method has been developed for structurally decomposing images by comparing them locally with special generalized references. The approach used here, borrowed from natural visual systems, made it possible to present a number of sections of the theory of image processing from a common standpoint and has been successfully used to solve diverse problems of artificial vision.
