Optical processing and neural nets for scene analysis
David P. Casasent · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 1993
We consider the problem of identifying each of multiple objects in a scene with object distortions and background clutter present. Attention is given to the role for neural nets (NNs) and optics and the type of NN used. A hierarchical/inference system is used with correlation neural nets used for low levels and new NNs with higher-order decision surfaces used for classification.
