Process for cyclic, interactive image analysis, and also computer system and computer program for performing the process
First Claim
1. A process for cyclic, interactive image analysis, of an image having individual image points, said image defining an image space, comprising the steps of:
- (a) selecting by a user of image regions of interest in said image, (b) performing preprogrammed transformations on said image at one of all individual image points and a selection of individual image points, said performing generating transformation result values defining a transformation space, (c) normalizing said transformation result values which provides a normalized transformation space, (d) dividing said normalized transformation space into classes with the aid of separation rules that are derived from normalized transformation result values in said image regions selected by the user, said dividing resulting in a classification, (e) allocating the classification obtained in said normalized transformation space to said individual image points resulting in a classified image in said image space, and (f) presenting said classified image in said image space.

Abstract
The invention relates to a process for cyclic, interactive image analysis with the steps of selection by the user of image regions of interest in the image, performance of various preprogrammed transformations on the image at all image points, performance of a normalization of the transformation results, division of the whole normalized transformation space into classes with the aid of separation rules which are derived from the transformation result values in the image regions selected by the user, allocation of the classification obtained in the transformation space to the individual image points, and representation of the thus classified image in the image space.
