Iseki • Information in the light • Shape and orientation of an object • Mental mechanism • Fill the gap in the input • Assumptions • Those which can’t be filled
Ikeda • Light • Contains much information • Mental mechanism • Necessary to be aware of what is seen • Assumptions • Built-in • Learned
Katsurada • Visual processes depends on assumptions • 5=x+y • 3-D geometry • Mental mechanism for recovery
Paragraph1 • Empiricists • Mind = blank slate • Info = out there in the real world • Rationalists • Mind = includes knowledge of the world • Both are true • Visual processes depend on assumptions
Paragraph1b • 5=x+y, solve x without knowing y • Ill-posed problem, but assume y < 1, then x > 4
Paragraph2 • Gibson: much info in the light • Higgins: proof • 5 points matching between 2 images • Horn: analogous proof • Shape from intensity • Needs smooth, matte surface
Paragraph3 • Mental mechanisms • Necessary to be aware of what is seen • A traveling robot must process • get images → recognize and locate obstacles • These processes rely on assumptions
Paragraph4 • Assumptions about the world • Built-in (inborn) • Learned • Both play a part in perception • This chapter: Initial stage of vision • Next chapter: Perception of depth
