A computational model of visual interpretation
… interacts with it, we need to understand how we visually interpret sketches. The process of design is also a reflective act. The designer keeps changing his perspectives and focus based on the unexpected opportunities that emerge from such reflection. Computational systems used today in design …

Stage V: A Visual Interpretation of My Dreams
<p><em>Stage V: A Visual Interpretation of My Dreams</em> is a project based on the visions of characters, which I have encountered during dream states. The title is derived from the fifth stage of sleep, also referred to as REM sleep for the stage in which dreaming occurs. This project has its …

Entwicklung eines halbautomatisierten Verfahrens zur Detektion neuer Siedlungsflächen durch vergleichende Untersuchungen hochauflösender Satelliten- und Luftbilddaten
… matter which is mostly realized by visual interpretation of aerial photography and to an increasing degree of high- and ultra-high-resolution satellite images. Within the scope of the present work a new, robust and largely automated process based on a statistical change analysis is …

The feasibility of using remote sensing and field-based checks to monitor the impact caused by collection of wood in the Eastern Cape/Ciskei forest and thicket formations
… analysis were investigated. In all cases, visual interpretation was used because it is considerably cheaper and demands less technical expertise than would computer processing. In addition, many studies have shown visual interpretation to be superior. Maps were drawn from multitemporal …

The Secret Art of Science: An Aural-Based Analysis of Jonty Harrison's Acousmatic Work "Pair/Impair"
… tools and practice for analyzing music whose visual interpretation, if any, do not represent the aural result of the composition. The means for suggesting a method are derived from documented observations in aural psychology, as well as composers' writings about musical perception. The result …

Determining estuarine seagrass density measures from low altitude multispectral imagery flown by remotely piloted aircraft
… density) when using training data formed using visual interpretation of ground reference photography, and up to 93% accuracy using precisely measured seagrass leaf-area. Visual interpretation agreed with precisely measured seagrass leaf area 88% of the time with some misattribution at …

Segmenting Skin Lesion Attributes in Dermoscopic Images Using Deep Learing Algorithm for Melanoma Detection
… images have been developed to assist the visual interpretation of dermoscopic images. The automatic segmentation of skin lesion attributes is a key step in computerized analysis of dermoscopic images. The International Skin Imaging Collaboration (ISIC) hosted the 2018 Challenges to help …

Interpreting abuse from self-representational drawings: a mixed-method study
… the intuitive process affecting the diagnostic interpretations of drawings. It utilized quantitative and qualitative methods to examine how subjectivity and heuristic strategies of interpreters might affect how accurately the interpreters differentiate between self-representational drawings …

Automatic land-cover-classification derived from high-resolution Ikonos satellite image in the urban atlantic forest in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil by means of an objects-oriented approach
… out a Land-cover forest classification with visual interpretation using SPOT data. This work produced a compatible thematic map in the scale 1:50,000. The scale of these maps permit to have a global vision of the land change cover but unfortunately do not correspond with the geographic …

Development of Lung Ultrasound Quantitative Approaches and Automatic Semi-Quantitative Strategies: In Silico, In Vitro, and Clinical Studies
… internal body parts, LUS is mainly based on the visual interpretation of imaging artifacts. Among which, the so-called vertical artifacts are particularly important as they correlate with various pathologies. The main limitations associated with this type of pattern analysis remain its …

Remote sensing analyses for open pit mine area computation. A comparative study on the implementation of multi-spectral classifications and crowdsourcing to compute the spatial extent of four open-pit mines in Indonesia, Australia, Canada and Brazil
… crowdsourcing are investigated individually by visual interpretation, accuracy assessment and area computation. Secondly, both methods are compared by Intersection over Union (IoU), by area values, accuracy values and visual interpretation. Acquired new findings regarding the implementation of …

Firn Pack Changes on White Glacier, Axel Heiberg Island, Nunavut
… followed the traditional approach of conducting visual interpretation of radargrams to identify zones of backscatter associated with firn. The second is a proposed new methodology that uses average backscatter values from each radar return as a proxy indicator of firn presence in the subsurface. …

Spatio-Temporal Vegetation Change as related to terrain factors at two Glacier Forefronts, Glacier National Park, Montana
… and validated using ground truth points and visual interpretation for accuracy. Overall accuracies were above 75% for all classified images. To identify biophysical correlates of change, we used generalized linear mixed models with non-vegetated surfaces to vegetation (code=1) or stable …

An evaluation of Landsat MSS data for ecological land classification and mapping in the Northern Cape
… examines the issues that arise in the use of visual interpretation of Landsat data during the analysis, classification and mapping of the natural vegetation of the semi-arid Northern Cape. Initial research involved the classifying and mapping of the vegetation using conventional methods. A …

Automatic matching of features in Synthetic Aperture Radar data to digital map data.
… being generated demand automatic tools for image interpretation. Where available, map data provides a valuable aid for visual interpretation and it should aid automatic interpretation. Automatic map based interpretation will be heavily dependent on methods for matching image and map features, both …
