Effect of Reproduction Scale on Probability of Image Recognition,
Abstract
For the range of spatial frequencies where the transmission function of the visual analyzer - the eye - is unlimited, the study of the dependence of the recognition probability of images transmitted on a noisy communication channel upon the scale of reproduction is not only of unquestioned practical interest, but also allows the following question to be answered: is the visual system an ideal averaging device, i.e., does the signal-to-noise ratio (and therefore, the probability of recognition remain constant) with a change of the angular dimensions of the specific distorted image.
