The possibility of extending the previously automated comparison method of Smriglio et al. (1986) for the determination of the absolute magnitudes of stars, M(V), was investigated by applying the same criterion which was used in Smriglio et al. method in the determination of spectal types and luminosity classes (i.e., by using the Vilnius seven-color photometric system). Absolute magnitudes of stars obtained by this method were found to agree well with the M(V) values obtained using other methods, including the uses of calibrated Q-Q diagrams, the MK type-M(V) map by Straizys and Kuriliene (1981), and the MK type-M(V) map by Corbally and Garrison (1984).
