Abstract:
The paper considres one of the problems of representation of graphical information in intelligent telecommunication
systems, images first of all. An outline analysis scheme is proposed, in which the sequence of transformation groups is ordered
by the group-over-group relationship. The advantages of this scheme are briefly described. The description of transformations
of graphic images is given at transmittion via telecommunication channels. A mathematical formalization of these
transformations is described, including identical transformations, translations, centrifugal rotations, central-affine-axial
bicompressions, motions, and non-reflex affine transformations. The properties of structural elements for various basic
transformation groups are formulated. It is noted that mathematically formalized analysis of transformations makes it possible
to carry out a structural description of graphic images with their geometric-topological properties, characteristics and
interrelations, which is important, for example, when organizing the transmittion of graphic images through the channels of
telecommunication systems and when compressing images during this transmittion.
