Instructional Lab Modules for Machine Vision

9315257艾伦这笔200,000美元的奖金是用于机器视觉的课程开发。我们的目标是创建动手操作的实验室模块，有效地描述和解释交互式实时图像环境中的机器视觉新算法。这些模块将使用基于X-WINDOWS的公共领域工具包在标准的基于Unix的图形工作站上实施。它们将完全随身携带，在任何大学的任何教室都可以使用。这些模块将利用两个重要和当前的发展：ARPA正在开发的用于图像理解的通用软件环境，以及用于创建交互式计算机教程的多媒体创作工具的最新进展。拟议的工作包括设计模块的组件、界面和布局；评估不同的工具包和界面构建包；测试一些模块并将其分发到其他站点；以及评估其他研究人员使用模块格式和编写工具的情况。

9315257 Allen This award of $200,000 is for curriculum development in Machine Vision. The goal is to create hands-on laboratory modules that effectively describe and explain new algorithms in machine vision in interactive, live image environment. These modules will be implemented on standard UNIX-based graphics workstations using public domain toolkits based on X-windows. They will be entirely portable and usable in any classroom at any university. The modules will be developed by leveraging off of two important and current developments: a common software environment for image understanding being developed by ARPA, and recent progress in multimedia authoring tools for creating interactive computer tutorials. The proposed work entails designing the components, interface, and layout of the modules; evaluating different toolkits and interface construction kits; testing and distributing a number of modules to other sites; and evaluating the use of the module format and authoring facilities by other researchers.
