Vision Algorithms and Psychophysics.

Abstract

Vision by man or machine is the useful symbolic descriptions form images of the world. Studies of human visual system provide valuable insights into the kinds of descriptions that will be the most useful, but little insight into the computational problems involved in deriving and manipulating theses descriptions. This research examines several computational problems associated with aspects of two- and three-dimensional vision. The solution to these problems includes the design and implementation of particular algorithms. Their efficiency and flexibility is compared with that of the human visual processor. Keywords include: Image understanding, Visual pattern recognition, Visual algorithms, Human vision, Biological information processing.
