Abstract

A hierarchical three-stage syntactic recognition algorithm using context-free grammars is described for automatic identification of skeletal maturity from X-rays of hand and wrist. The primitives considered are dot, straight line and arcs of three different curvatures (including both senses) in order to describe and interpret the structural development of epiphysis and metaphysis with growth of a child.
