Abstract

Understanding images in terms of hierarchical and logical structures is crucial for many semantic tasks, including image retrieval, scene understanding and robot vision. This paper combines compositional hierarchies, qualitative spatial relations, relational instance-based learning and robust feature extraction in one framework. For each layer in the hierarchy, substructures in the images are detected, classified and then employed one layer up the hierarchy to obtain higher-level semantic structures, by making use of qualitative spatial relations. The approach is applied to street view images. We employ a four-layer hierarchy in which subsequently corners, windows and doors, and individual houses are detected.
