Object recognition

Oliva explores new ground in computational perception at CSAILNeuroscientist looks forward to collaborative studies of visual perception in the brain and its computational applications.

Scene perception versus action in the brainCognitive neuroscientists shed light on how the brain responds to scenes and their mirror-image reversals.

Finding an edgeAn algorithm for identifying the boundaries of objects in digital images is 50,000 times more efficient than its predecessor.

How the brain recognizes objectsA new computational model sheds light on the workings of the human visual system and could help advance artificial-intelligence research, too.

Seeing the forest for the treesObject recognition systems that break images into ever smaller parts should be much more efficient and may shed light on how the brain works.

Context is ev … well, something, anywayMIT research uses information about how frequently objects are seen together to refine the conclusions of object recognition systems.

Seeing thingsResearchers from MIT's CSAIL teach computers to recognize objects.
