Abstract :
A PC system for recognition of natural scene images including human faces and various objects is proposed. Coarse region segmentation of real images with 64/spl times/64 pixels at the video rate is achieved by using the FPGA implementation of resistive-fuse networks. A flexible template matching based on dynamic-link architecture is performed on our PC system.
