Klappentext A unique multidisciplinary perspective on the problem of visual object categorization. Zusammenfassung This collection presents a unique multidisciplinary perspective on the problem of visual object categorization. The result of a series of four highly successful workshops on the topic! the book gathers many of the most distinguished researchers from both computer and human vision. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
