Abstract :
The use of object-oriented database principles to help model an image for computer vision, specifically, for line-image analysis, is described. The resulting representation, called thin line code (TLC), is general across known applications and extensible to new applications. TLC´s advantages, and also some difficulties it has in strictly adhering to traditional notions of object orientation, are addressed. A review of relevant aspects of object modeling is included.<>
