Perceptual Grouping for Building Recognition in High-resolution SAR Images using the GESTALT-System

GESTALT is a production system interpreter designed for advanced automaticrecognition from difficult pictorial data. Building recognition fromleading edge high resolution SAR-data is a good example for sucha challenge. This contribution explains the system itself and itsapplication to this particular issue. Perceptual grouping paradigmsare coded in the productions in order to discriminate man-made orderedstructure from arbitrary clutter. In particular symmetry and repetitivesimilar structure render promising prospects for this application.     «
