Fixed Point Solutions of Recursive Operations on Boolean Arrays
Machine Intelligence Research Unit, Hope Park Square, Meadow Lane, Edinburgh, UK
Parallel array processors hold great promise for fast image processing applications. This paper contains an analysis of the convergence of some recursive parallel array processes in boolean arrays. The analysis involves looking for a fixed point solution to the recursion relation and ensuring that the fixed point is indeed accessible. A condition for stability is found for one potentially unstable recursive operation. Implementation of the recursive processes on a CLIP4 parallel array processor is also discussed.
