Differential Geometry, Surface Patches and Convergence Methods
(1979-02-01)
The problem of constructing a surface from the information provided by the Marr-Poggio theory of human stereo vision is investigated. It is argued that not only does this theory provide explicit boundary conditions at ...
Computer Aided Evolutionary Design for Digital Integrated Systems
(1979-05-01)
We propose to develop a computer aided design tool which can help an engineer deal with system evolution from the initial phases of design right through the testing and maintenance phases. We imagine a design system ...
The Dream of a Lifetime: A Lazy Scoping Mechanism
(1979-11-01)
We define a "rack", a data abstraction hybrid of a register and a stack. It is used for encapsulating the behavior of the kind of register whose contents may have an extent which requires that it be saved during the ...
Making Aesthetic Choices
(1979-03-01)
A framework is presented for making choices that are primarily constrained by aesthetic, as opposed to, pragmatic considerations. An example of the application of this framework is a computer system called "Ani", capable ...
Logo Music Projects: Experiments in Musical Perception and Design
(1979-05-01)
This memo gives a series of experiments which one can use to get a better understanding of how music works and how music is apprehended by an active and knowing listener. It does so by using the children's computer ...
Some Properties of Discontinuities in the Image Irradiance Equation
(1979-04-01)
The image irradiance equation is a first order partial differential equation. Part of this paper is a "comprehensive" guide to solving this kind of equation. The special structure of the image irradiance equation is ...
Directional Selectivity and Its Use in Early Visual Processing
(1979-06-01)
The construction of directionally selective units and their use in the processing of visual motion are considered.
Theory of Edge Detection
(1979-04-01)
A theory of edge detection is presented.
SLICES: At the Boundary Between Analysis and Synthesis
(1977-07-01)
The algebraic difficulty of determining the component values in a circuit of known topology and specifications is large. Expert circuit designers use terminal equivalence and power arguments to reduce the apparent ...
Annotated Production Systems: A Model for Skill Acquisition
(1977-02-01)
Annotated Production Systems provide a procedural model for skill acquisition by augmenting a production model of the skill with formal commentary describing plans, bugs, and interraltionships between various productions. ...
