Exploring the physics of sand drawings: The role of craters, furrows and piles.
TL;DR: This work carries out experimental studies on the formation of sand cavities, furrows and piles, which individually or interconnected, give rise to artistic patterns and finds that they conform into simple exponential and power laws that collapse when a scaling is performed.
Book ChapterDOI
Pictures, layers, double stranded molecules: on multi-dimenional sentences
TL;DR: Two examples of multi-dimensional sentences are discussed, to show problems deriving from a straightforward extension of one-dimensional notions, such as shuffle and the irreducibility of pictures to strings.
Book ChapterDOI
Satisfiability via Smooth Pictures
TL;DR: The main result states the satisfiability problem for s-smooth pictures can be solved in time polynomial on s and on the size of the input picture.

Picture generation and developmental matrix systems
Nalinakshi Nirmal,Raghavan Rama +1 more
TL;DR: Two-dimensional L -systems are presented by substituting regular sets vertically into extended OL ( OL, tabled OL)(EOL (OL, TOL) systems and the automata which accept extended OL-regular matrix languages (EOL-RML) are constructed.

Contributions of Professor Gift Siromoney in the Area of Pattern Recognition
TL;DR: A comprehensive surrey of Professor Gift Siromoney's contributions in the area of pattern recognition is done, which deals with his pioneering work on syntactic methods to picture generation and description.

Sequential Operations in Digital Picture Processing
Azriel Rosenfeld,John L. Pfaltz +1 more
TL;DR: The relative merits of performing local operations on ~ digitized picture in parallel or sequentially are discussed and some applications of the connected component and distance functions are presented.

Formal Languages and Their Relation to Automata
TL;DR: The theory of formal languages as a coherent theory is presented and its relationship to automata theory is made explicit, including the Turing machine and certain advanced topics in language theory.

A formal picture description scheme as a basis for picture processing systems
TL;DR: A formal picture description scheme to be used as the basis for picture processing systems is presented and a series of examples illustrate the capability and limitations of the description scheme.
