Abstract
After introducing natural and intrinsic link between the evolving subjects of Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision research, particularly in the context of next generation of computer system research, the paper presents an overview of the framework of current image understanding research from the points of view of knowledge level, information level and complexity. Because a general purpose computer vision system must be capable of recognizing 3-D objects, the paper attempts to define the 3-D object recognition problem, and discusses basic concepts associated with this problem. The major application area often mentioned an industrial vision system and scene analysis in aerial photography.
