Analyse des Visuellen Klassifikationssystems Durch Detektionsexperimente
Summary Experiments on recognizing statistically distorted patterns show that the human visual system operates as a linear classifier. The spatial frequency range, within which features are extracted, is determined by the coupling in the area of sharpest vision (2°). The relevant features for classifying patterns are not produced by isotropic filtering
On the classification of visual patterns: systems analysis using detection experiments.
Behavioral experiments are indispensable for the analysis of biological systems for cognition and recognition. When these are carried out as detection experiments three types of description can be used for the problem of visual pattern recognition which allow conclusions to be drawn on the operating function of the system. Provided that the signals to be recognized have additive noise superimposed on them, system description is possible: 1. on the basis on the probabilities of recognition and of mix-up,--2. through the analysis of the transformation of distribution densities of the noise,--3. by means of the measurable distances of the patterns from each other in feature space.-The analysis…
