6 Perceptual cues and object recognition
John M. Findlay and Fiona N. Newell
6.1 Introduction
6.1.1 Simulation and recognition
Three disciplines with different aims have an interest in understanding the process of visual recognition. Two of these work in a way which is essentially analytic. Biological vision theorists are interested in how the brain (generally the human brain) carries out visual tasks. Solutions proposed must be subject to the constraints of neuro-anatomical and neurophysiological knowledge, for example the relatively slow speed of neurons when working as computing elements. Computational vision is the branch of artificial intelligence in which computational methods are proposed for analysing optical information to solve ...
