{"pk":30956,"title":"Equilateral Triangles: A Challenge for Connectionist Vision","subtitle":null,"abstract":"In this paper we explore the problem of dynamically computing visual relations in a connectionist system. The task of detecting equilateral triangles from clusters of points is used to test our architecture. W e argue that this is a difficult task for traditional feed-forward architectures although it is a simple task for people. Our solution implements a biologically inspired network which uses an efficient focus of attention mechanism and cluster detectors to sequentially extract the locations of the vertices.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Paper Presentations -- Group 3: Vision","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2s11t8fd","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Subutai","middle_name":"","last_name":"Ahmad","name_suffix":"","institution":"International Computer Science Institute","department":""},{"first_name":"Stephen","middle_name":"","last_name":"Omohundro","name_suffix":"","institution":"International Computer Science Institute","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"1990-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/30956/galley/20805/download/"}]}
