In many cases, a single view of an object may not contain sufficient features to recognize it unambiguously. This paper presents a new on-line recognition scheme based on next view planning for the identification of an isolated three-dimensional (3-D) object using simple features. The scheme uses a probabilistic reasoning framework for recognition and planning. Our knowledge representation sche...

Six experiments were conducted to examine the effect of knowledge of a target for overriding stimulus-driven interference in simple search tasks (Experiments 1-3) and compound search tasks (Experiments 4-6). In simple search when the target differed from nontargets in orientation, a singleton distractor that had an orientation equivalent to that of a target interfered with search for the target...

The kernel is a solution concept for a cooperative game. It reflects symmetry properties of the characteristic function and desirability relations over the set of the players. Given m games over disjoint sets of players and an m-person game,one defines a compound game over the union of the m disjoint sets. These m games are the components and the above rnperson game is called the quotient. The ...
