Pictures and Language

1997
In this chapter, we return to some of the more fundamental issues surrounding pictures. We draw on the terms we have developed to look back at the material we have studied. The goal is to shed more light on the relationship between pictures and language.

PLANG—A picture language schema for a class of pictures

Pattern Recognition, 1983
Abstract A picture language for a class of pictures made up of line-like curvilinear elements is presented. The description generated is natural and highly expressive. The description schema is shown to be capable of generating real-life pictures, interpreting pictures with real-life deformations and revealing structural information present in the ...

Chain code picture languages

2005
A picture is a connected set of axis parallel unit lines from the Cartesian plane considered as a square grid. A word over the alphabet {l,r,u,d} is a picture description in the sense that it represents a traversal of a picture where the interpretation of the symbols l,r,u,d is: l — go (and draw) one unit line to the left of the current point; r,u, and

Stochastic languages for picture analysis

Computer Graphics and Image Processing, 1973
The concept of stochastic languages is introduced and major results are briefly reviewed. The use of stochastic languages for the description of noisy (ambiguous) pictorial patterns is demonstrated. A procedure for the estimation of production probabilities of a stochastic context-free language from sample strings is presented.

Picture Languages Generated by Assembling Tiles

Fundamenta Informaticae, 2009
We propose a new formalism for generating picture languages based on an assembly mechanism of tiles that uses rules having a context and a replacement site. More precisely, a picture language will be generated from a finite set of initial pictures by iteratively applying rewriting rules from a given finite set of rules, called a tiling rule system ...

On some recognizable picture-languages

1998
We show that the language of pictures over {a, b}, where all occurring b's are connected is recognizable, which solves an open problem in [Mat98]. We generalize the used construction to show that monocausal deterministically recognizable picture languages are recognizable, which is surprisingly nontrivial.

P Systems and Picture Languages

2007
Array-rewriting P systems were introduced in [2] linking the two areas of membrane computing and picture grammars. Subsequently a variety of P systems with array objects and different kinds of rewriting has been introduced. Here we discuss a few prominent systems among these, point out their features and indicate possible problems for future study.

The Language of Pictures

Abstract This chapter examines the Renaissance interest in hieroglyphics, and connects this interest to Philip Pullman’s creation of the dæmon. Knowledge of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics, a writing system that had endured for millennia, was lost during the late Roman empire.

5. Picture language

2018
For centuries, images were regarded as inferior to language and seen as an embellishment or decoration, despite their undoubted power to transmit information. This held back the development of graphical presentations of data, because numbers in tables were seen as more trustworthy.
