Mathew, Binu K.; Davis, Al | A characterization of visual feature recognition | Natural human interfaces are a key to realizing the dream of ubiquitous computing. This implies that embedded systems must be capable of sophisticated perception tasks. This paper analyzes the nature of a visual feature recognition workload. Visual feature recognition is a key component of a numb... | Visual feature recognition; Human interfaces | 2003-09-03 |
