Abstract

The development of customized image processing applications is time consuming and requires high level skills. This paper describes the design of an interactive application generation system oriented towards producing image processing software programs. The description is focused on two models which constitute the core of the human-computer interaction. First, the formulation model identifies and organizes information that is assumed necessary and sufficient for developing image processing applications. This model is represented as a domain ontology which provides primitives for the formulation language. Second, the interaction model defines ways to acquire such information from end-users. The result of the interaction is an application ontology from which a suitable software is generated. This model emphases the gradual emergence of a semantics of the problem through purely symbolic representations. Based on these two models, a prototype system has been implemented to conduct experiments.
