The distinctive aspect of the CAVIAR technology is a visible, parameterized geometrical model that serves as the human-computer communication channel. Evaluation of CAVIAR flower and face recognition systems shows that their accuracy is much higher than that of the machine alone; their recognition time is much lower than that of the human alone; they can be initialized with a single reference sample per class; and they improve with use. CAVIAR-flower has been ported to stand-alone and to wireless laptop-client personal digital assistants (PDAs)
