Seeing the Forest For the Trees 64

swframe writes "A new object recognition system developed at MIT and UCLA looks for rudimentary visual features shared by multiple examples of the same object. Then it looks for combinations of those features shared by multiple examples, and combinations of those combinations, and so on, until it has assembled a model of the object that resembles a line drawing. Popular Science has a summary of the research. I've been working on something similar and I think this accomplishment looks very promising."

    I'VE been working on a similar project as well!

    Maybe if enough of us with the same project interests get together, we can create an accurate summary of the parent!

    You see? We could look at each other's projects for combinations of features shared by multiple examples, and combinations of those combinations, and so on!!??

    This is amazing!
