TY - JOUR A1 - Zhu, Jianhui A1 - Malsburg, Christoph von der T1 - Grouping variables in an underdetermined system for invariant object recognition T2 - BMC neuroscience N2 - Poster presentation: Introduction We study the problem of object recognition invariant to transformations, such as translation, rotation and scale. A system is underdetermined if its degrees of freedom (number of possible transformations and potential objects) exceed the available information (image size). The regularization theory solves this problem by adding constraints [1]. It is unclear what constraints biological systems use. We suggest that rather than seeking constraints, an underdetermined system can make decisions based on available information by grouping its variables. We propose a dynamical system as a minimum system for invariant recognition to demonstrate this strategy. ...
