An invariant pattern recognition machine using a modified ART architecture
N. Srinivasa, Musa K. Jouaneh · IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics · 1993
A novel invariant pattern recognition machine is proposed based on a modified ART architecture. Invariance is achieved by adding a new layer called F/sub 3/, beyond the F/sub 2/ layer in the ART architecture. The design of the weight connections between the nodes of the F/sub 2/ layer and the cells of the F/sub 3/ layer are similar to the invariance net. Computer simulations show that the model is not only invariant to translations and rotations of 2-D binary images but also noise-tolerant to these transformed images.>
