ABSTRACT

Absence of time-consuming operations indicates a sufficient simplicity of the computational procedure that realises the parallel hierarchical transformation, and makes it an efficient method for use in various applied areas requiring a combination of a high level of parallelism and a compact form of data representation. A general algorithm of fast recognition of laser beam spots (LBS) images can be developed based on the proposed method of parallel-hierarchical transformation for processing dynamic images. To estimate the efficiency of suggested algorithms and the soft hardware developed on their basis, this chapter describes the technical advantages of the means of the PH transformation as demonstrated by the developed products and conducted experiments. Experimental methods to study the processing of laser beam spot image fragments were developed, which allow to verify the adequacy of the proposed algorithms and to obtain results of fast processing and classification of laser beam spot image fragments.
