Abstract

Segmentation, construction and recognition of an image are done simultaneously by sequences of parallel neighborhood-transformations. Feature extraction is particularly easy when the transformations are idempotent. Examples are given. The development of a language and of an apparatus specially devoted to automated cytology are discussed.
