The importance of symmetry and virtual views in three-dimensional object recognition

T Vetter, T Poggio, HH Bülthoff - Current Biology, 1994 - cell.com
Background: Human observers can recognize three-dimensional objects seen in novel
orientations, even when they have previously seen only a relatively small number of different …

Three-dimensional object recognition

PJ Besl, RC Jain - ACM Computing Surveys (CSUR), 1985 - dl.acm.org
A general-purpose computer vision system must be capable of recognizing three-
dimensional (3-D) objects. This paper proposes a precise definition of the 3-D object …

Stored representations of three-dimensional objects in the absence of two-dimensional cues

RE Phinney, RM Siegel - Perception, 1999 - journals.sagepub.com
Object recognition was studied in human subjects to determine whether the storage of the
visual objects was in a two-dimensional or a three-dimensional representation. Novel …

Recognition of 3-d objects from multiple 2-d views by a self-organizing neural architecture

G Bradski, S Grossberg - From Statistics to Neural Networks: Theory and …, 1994 - Springer
The recognition of 3-D objects from sequences of their 2-D views is modeled by a neural
architecture, called VIEWNET, that uses View Information Encoded With NETworks …

Visual learning and recognition of 3-D objects from appearance

H Murase, SK Nayar - International journal of computer vision, 1995 - Springer
The problem of automatically learning object models for recognition and pose estimation is
addressed. In contrast to the traditional approach, the recognition problem is formulated as …

A neural-network appearance-based 3-D object recognition using independent component analysis

HS Sahambi, K Khorasani - IEEE transactions on neural …, 2003 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper presents results on appearance-based three-dimensional (3-D) object
recognition (3DOR) accomplished by utilizing a neural-network architecture developed …

Vision is getting easier every day

P Cavanagh - Perception, 1995 - journals.sagepub.com
You may have noticed, as I have, that the complexity of the visual system oscillates over
time. For quite a long time, centuries in fact, vision could call on rich internal representations …

On shapes

D Ballard, D Sabbah - 1982 - urresearch.rochester.edu
An important problem in vision is to detect the presence of a known rigid, 3-d object. The
general 3-d object recognition task can be thought of as building a description of the object …

On learning to recognize 3-D objects from examples

S Edelman - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and …, 1993 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Previous results on nonlearnability of visual concepts relied on the assumption that such
concepts are represented as sets of pixels. The author uses an approach developed by …

New methods for matching 3-D objects with single perspective views

R Horaud - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and …, 1987 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper we analyze the ability of a computer vision system to derive properties of the
three-dimensional (3-D) physical world from viewing two-dimensional (2-D) images. We …
