Pattern Recognition
• E. Gibson’s Feature Theory» Complex stimuli are composed of distinctive and separable parts
called features.
» Pattern recognition is accomplished by counting the presence or absence of a checklist of features.
» Gibson’s specification of the feature set◊ Features must be critical
◊ Identity should be unchanged by brightness, size and perspective.
◊ Yield a unique pattern for each letter
◊ As small a set as possible.
Find the letter ‘W’

Pattern Recognition
• Problems with Feature theory» How features go together are as important as the features
themselves.
Pattern Recognition
• Structural Theories» Like feature theories, except that they also consider the
structure of the features (i.e., How they go together.» Biederman’s Theory of 3-d object recognition.
◊ Geons: 3-D ‘volume’ features
Pattern Recognition
» Eliminating information about the relationship between volumes/features should be detrimental to pattern recognition.
◊ E.g.,
-> What are these objects?

-> It is easier to identify a letter in the context of a word than by itself.
Pattern Recognition
• Bottom-up processing» “The whole is greater than the sum of its parts”» Perception involves an interplay between bottom-up and
top-down processes.
Top-down processes
• Perception requires an interplay between top down and bottom up processes

Pattern Recognition
• Connectionism» The Unit
◊ Activity, weights, thresholds, and summation
» A simple example the AND problem
» The OR problem
» The XOR problem◊ Hidden units and three layered networks.

Hearing
• The physical stimulus» The quantitative element: Amount of compression (sound pressure).
◊ We hear loudness, measured in decibels.» The qualitative element: Frequency of compression waves.
◊ We hear pitch
