Abstract
This paper presents methods of extracting spatial relationships between objects on visual scene using directional morphological operations called conic dilation. With additional features describing each object it creates scene description matrix, the structure containing all knowledge of image. Afterward matrix can easily be transformed into Prolog predicates which leads to the inference about scene and possibility of making semi-natural queries about image content.
