Fuzzy hierarchical car-model pattern recognition system using fixation feedback

Abstract

The "fuzzy hierarchical pattern recognition using fixation feedback" method is proposed and it is applied to recognize kinds, i.e., groups of trade names, of cars. In the experiments, image data of fourteen kinds of minicars taken from several directions are used. By comparing the results of the "non fixation feedback" method, it has been confirmed that the proposed method could increase efficiency without decreasing accuracy rates of recognition.
