✦ Synopsis

KANDIDATS is a comprehensive digital image processing system that interacts with the user at a command string level. It includes prompting for parameter input, and checks user inpu~ for errors. Image analysis opera~ions available in KANDIDATS consist of utility functions, image transforms, spatial clustering, and Bayesian classification. The versatility and capabilities of KANDIDATB arise h.om a modular programming struct;ure and file structure. These attributes allow processing of images that are a few thousand rows by a few thousand columns in a minicomputer system with only 3214 words of main memory.
