Abstract
A method is disclosed for automatically classifying and graphically visualizing image objects that are segmented and, given undershooting of a prescribed distance and compliance with a similarity criterion, are combined to form clusters. In at least one embodiment, for object classification, the method includes preselecting result data, using a prescribable selection criterion, from a result set of an application, executed in the background on an image data record of an imaging system, for feature extraction and automatic pattern recognition of segmented and clustered image objects, and/or rendered image data of an image rendering application, executed in the background, for two-dimensional and/or three-dimensional graphic visualization of these image objects; and/or marking the data in a graphically visible fashion as preselected on a screen of a screen terminal.
