Abstract :
Several optical pattern recognition techniques suitable for multiple-degree-of-freedom object recognition are described. These include a correlator, an associate processor, and three feature extractors using moments, chord distributions, and a space-variant feature space. The processing architectures, the algorithm details, and initial results obtained for each approach are presented
