Abstract
Several decision algorithms were used to classify complex patterns recorded by TV cameras aboard unmanned, scientific satellites. Recognition experiments were performed with two kinds of patterns: lunar topographic features and clouds in the earth´s atmosphere. Classification accuracies ranged from 53 percent to 99 percent on independent data.
