First, the hierarchical structure is organized between generation task and verification task with a view to making the mechanism applicable, and then a generation task in the upper layer controls the corresponding verification task in the lower layer. If available processors should be managed effectually, it is possible to improve the recognition ratio by means of the cooperative interpretation among related hypotheses. Also, we implemented the the prototype system on the parallel computer in order to make the effectiveness of our approach clear.}, pages = {1225--1234}, title = {Parallel recognition of roads from urban maps on generation/verification paradigm of hypotheses}, year = {2001} }
