Appearance is more than shape, illumination, and pose
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 21 (4):470-471 (1998)
| Abstract | Although we find the idea of representation by similarities attractive as such, we have two main objections to the specific proposal of Edelman. First, he does not consider complexity issues in terms of storage and speed of recall for recognition. Related to this, the appearance of objects depends on far more factors than just shape, illumination, and pose. This requires an intermediate shape abstraction process that extracts category-specific shape properties from the mixed appearance of images. | |||||||||
