Basic objects in natural categories

by Eleanor Rosch, Carolyn B. Mervis, Wayne D. Gray, David M. Johnson, Penny Boyes-braem - COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY , 1976
"... Categorizations which humans make of the concrete world are not arbitrary but highly determined. In taxonomies of concrete objects, there is one level of abstraction at which the most basic category cuts are made. Basic categories are those which carry the most information, possess the highest categ ..."

category cue validity, and are, thus, the most differentiated from one another. The four experiments of Part I define basic objects by demonstrating that in taxonomies of common concrete nouns in English based on class inclusion, basic objects are the most inclusive categories whose members: (a) possess

Hierarchical Models of Object Recognition in Cortex

by Maximilian Riesenhuber, Tomaso Poggio , 1999
"... The classical model of visual processing in cortex is a hierarchy of increasingly sophisticated representations, extending in a natural way the model of simple to complex cells of Hubel and Wiesel. Somewhat surprisingly, little quantitative modeling has been done in the last 15 years to explore th ..."
Abstract - Cited by 836 (84 self) - Add to MetaCart
the biological feasibility of this class of models to explain higher level visual processing, such as object recognition. We describe a new hierarchical model that accounts well for this complex visual task, is consistent with several recent physiological experiments in inferotemporal cortex and makes testable

Robust Real-time Object Detection

by Paul Viola, Michael Jones - International Journal of Computer Vision , 2001
"... This paper describes a visual object detection framework that is capable of processing images extremely rapidly while achieving high detection rates. There are three key contributions. The first is the introduction of a new image representation called the “Integral Image ” which allows the features ..."

background regions of the image to be quickly discarded while spending more computation on promising object-like regions. A set of experiments in the domain of face detection are presented. The system yields face detection performace comparable to the best previous systems [18, 13, 16, 12, 1]. Implemented

A Hierarchical Internet Object Cache

by Anawat Chankhunthod , Peter B. Danzig, Chuck Neerdaels, Michael F. Schwartz, Kurt J. Worrell - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 1996 USENIX TECHNICAL CONFERENCE , 1995
"... This paper discusses the design andperformance of a hierarchical proxy-cache designed to make Internet information systems scale better. The design was motivated by our earlier trace-driven simulation study of Internet traffic. We believe that the conventional wisdom, that the benefits of hierarch ..."
Abstract - Cited by 496 (6 self) - Add to MetaCart
, we relate our experience fitting the cache into the increasingly complex and operational world of Internet information systems, including issues related to security, transparency to cache-unaware clients, and the role of file systems in support of ubiquitous wide-area information systems.

The reviewing of object files: Object specific integration of information

by Daniel Kahneman, Anne Treisman, J. Gibbs - Cognitive Psychology , 1992
"... A series of experiments explored a form of object-specific priming. In all experiments a preview field containing two or more letters is followed by a target letter that is to be named. The displays are designed to produce a perceptual interpretation of the target as a new state of an object that pr ..."

Local features and kernels for classification of texture and object categories: a comprehensive study

by J. Zhang, S. Lazebnik, C. Schmid - International Journal of Computer Vision , 2007
"... Recently, methods based on local image features have shown promise for texture and object recognition tasks. This paper presents a large-scale evaluation of an approach that represents images as distributions (signatures or histograms) of features extracted from a sparse set of keypoint locations an ..."

the influence of background correlations on recognition performance via extensive tests on the PASCAL database, for which ground-truth object localization information is available. Our experiments demonstrate that image representations based on distributions of local features are surprisingly effective

Direct manipulation: a step beyond programming languages

"... Direct manipulation systems offer the satisfying experience of operating on visible objects. The computer becomes transparent, and users can concentrate on their tasks. ..."

Recognition-by-components: A theory of human image understanding

by Irving Biederman - Psychological Review , 1987
"... The perceptual recognition of objects is conceptualized to be a process in which the image of the input is segmented at regions of deep concavity into an arrangement of simple geometric components, such as blocks, cylinders, wedges, and cones. The fundamental assumption of the proposed theory, recog ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1272 (23 self) - Add to MetaCart
for the major phenomena of object recognition: If an arrangement of two or three geons can be recovered from the input, objects can be quickly recognized even when they are occluded, novel, rotated in depth, or extensively degraded. The results from experiments on the perception of briefly presented pictures

Experimental Tests of the Endowment Effect and the Coase Theorem,”

by Daniel Kahneman , Jack L Knetsch , Richard H Thaler - Journal of Political Economy, , 1990
"... Contrary to theoretical expectations, measures of willingness to accept greatly exceed measures of willingness to pay. This paper reports several experiments that demonstrate that this "endowment effect" persists even in market settings with opportunities to learn. Consumption objects (e. ..."
