Abstract :
Image processing in early vision involves complex computational tasks, such as convolution operations with elongated Gaussian or Gabor-like functions. The authors show how these operators can be related to the signal processing capabilities of 2D active resistor grids characterised by anisotropic patterns of interconnections. Applications to texture segregation are described.
