Abstract :
A feature space trajectory (FST) neural net is used to represent distorted versions of an object. Its use in determining the class and pose of an object is addressed with attention to: which aspect views and how many are needed to represent an object, which viewpoint gives the best pose animate and the best classification confidence. New eigen features are also advanced to provide improved results
