Working Paper
An approach to vision research is described that combines ideas about low level processing with more abstract notions about the representation of knowledge in intelligent systems. A particular problem, of the representation of knowledge about the three-dimensional world, is discussed: the outline of a solution is given, and an experimental world of simple mechanical assemblies is described, in which the solution may be implemented and tested. A tentative summary is given of the knowledge that is required for operating in this world, and a research project is proposed.
