Abstract(in English) Center fields of image understanding are the pattern processing and the symbol processing. Both processing are often studied independently so far. In this paper, we propose a hybrid system for early stage of image understanding where the symbol processing and the pattern processing exist in parallel and complement mutually. There, the common knowledge that is necessary for their interaction is automatically acquired using the image recollection ability of the selective attention model. Local pattern features are converted into symbolic description. We developed an image segmentation system which is able to recover lacked part of given object using the symbolic inference. The system was applied for an occluded image and the usefulness of the hybrid system was shown.
