English abstract

The interpretation of an image by the computer is a highly complex task. There is a huge gap between the human and computational understanding of images and its interpretation. In this paper we present some of the concepts involved in the representation, indexing and interpretation of computerized images, focusing on medical imaging. The representation of images by low-level features (such as color and texture) is described as well as the use of high-level features such as ontologies.

La interpretación del significado de una imagen por el ordenador es una tarea muy compleja. Hay una brecha entre la comprensión humana y la comprensión computacional de su significado. En este trabajo se presentan algunos de los conceptos necesarios para la interpretación, representación e indización de imágenes computacionales, centrándose en imágenes médicas. Se describe la representación de imágenes con características de bajo nivel (como color y textura) y el uso de características de alto nivel, tales como ontologías.
