Embodiment

[0158] Example - Virtual World Navigation

[0159] In one embodiment of evaluating the effectiveness of a method for machine vision, the navigation task is used, as this is particularly challenging (requires simultaneous processing of time and space). This approach applies different aspects of multiple learning algorithms commonly used for navigation, e.g., LeCun, Y. et al. (2010) Convolutional Networks and Applications in Vision. Proc. International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS'10), pp.253-256.IEEE; Szarvas, M. et al. (2005) Pedestrian detection with convolutional neural networks. Proc. Intelligent Vehicles Symposium, pp.224-229.IEEE; Jackel, L.D. et al. (2006) The DARPA LAGR program: Goals, challenges, methodology, and phase I results. Journal of Field Robotics, 23, 945–973, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Using these techniques, the navigator is constructed to learn its environment through a convolutional neural network (CNN), a type ...

Abstract

A method is disclosed including: receiving raw image data corresponding to a series of raw images; processing the raw image data with an encoder to generate encoded data, where the encoder is characterized by an input / output transformation that substantially mimics the input / output transformation of one or more retinal cells of a vertebrate retina; and applying a first machine vision algorithm to data generated based at least in part on the encoded data.
