    摘要: A method, a device, and a computer program product for identifying objects in image data. The device is enabled to, in response to determining that an object type of a first set of object types is represented in the image data, indicate that the object type is represented in captured image data. The device is further enabled to, in response to determining that no object type of the first set of object types is represented in the image data, determine whether the image data comprises an object characteristic of a specific one of a second set of object types. The device is further enabled to, in response to determining that the image data comprises an object characteristic of the specific one of the second set of object types, indicate that the image data comprises an object characteristic of the specific one of the second set of object types.

    摘要: An improved technique for inspecting photomasks employs simulated images of the resist pattern. A simulated image of an original pattern is compared to a simulated image generated from a pattern captured from a photomask manufactured from the original pattern. Alternatively, simulated images generated from captured data from two different instances of the same original pattern formed in a photomask are compared.

    摘要: A method and apparatus is described for recognition of hand printed characters using maximum uncertainty--minimum variance (MUMV) functions, such as Gabor functions, implemented by optical elements. A set of optical elements having varying optical density corresponding to a set of two-dimensional MUMV functions is generated. A pattern of illumination responsive to the image of the character to be identified is simultaneously transmitted through each of the optical elements implementing the MUMV functions. The amount of light transmitted through each of the elements is measured, providing a transmission coefficient. Such transmission coefficients are used as a set of inputs to a neural network, such that the inputs to the neural network are a set of transmission coefficients resulting from transmission of light corresponding to a character to be identified through a complete set of optical elements implementing a set of two-dimensional MUMV functions. The neural network calculates weighted sums of the transmission coefficients. The neural network may be implemented as a network of resistors connected between input nodes, intermediate nodes, and output nodes. The output node having the highest voltage identifies the character to be identified.

    摘要: An object or scene viewed by the programmable optical processor based machine vision system is converted into a video signal representative of a spatial orientation and position of a viewed object being viewed. Reference information stored within a system control processor and indicative of a desired object to be identified and its spatial orientation and position of is used to produce a reference video signal. Both the object video signal representative of the object being viewed and the reference video signal representative of the desired object to be identified are converted into incoherent optical representations of these signals which are optically parallel processed in order to obtain a cross-correlation of the respective signals. This cross-correlation is converted into an electrical signal and is evaluated using any suitable known correlation evaluation technique in order to determine whether a high degree of correlation exists between the object being viewed and its position and orientation and the reference signal indicative of a desired object to be identified and its orientation. If a high degree of correlation exists, the effector control processor is provided with information related to the object so that the effector control processor may control a robotic manipulator in a desired manner. If a high degree of correlation does not exist between the respective signals, new object signal or reference signal information related to the object being viewed is iteratively correlated with the remaining original signal in order to determine the degree of correlation between these two signals.

    摘要: Apparatus for performing tests for determining the validity of a paper purported to be a valid instrument is presented. Fundamentally, the invention comprises a tray for receiving a paper offered as a valid instrument and maintaining the same in sliding relationship between a light source and reticle. A photocell is operatively connected to the reticle and senses light passing from the light source and through the paper and reticle. The output of the photocell is applied to an operational amplifier having a dynamic feedback network and the output of this amplifier is characteristic of both a grid pattern upon the paper and the optical density thereof. This output is then passed to an amplifier circuit which establishes an optical density domain and is operative to pass a signal only if the paper falls within such domain. This output is then passed to appropriate integrating and comparator circuitry to ultimately determine the validity of the paper.
