Recognition of Real Objects
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1972-10)
High level semantic knowledge will be employed in the development of a machine vision program flexible enough to deal with a class of "everyday objects" in varied environments.
This report is in the nature of a thesis ...
Climber: A Vertex-Finder
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-02)
A LISP program has been written which returns the location of a vertex in a suspected region, as well as an indication of the certainty of success.
The Application of Linear Systems Analysis to Image Processing. Some Notes.
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1974)
The Fourier transform is a convenient tool for analyzing the performance of an image-forming system, but must be treated with caution. One of its major uses is turning convolutions into products. It is also used to transform ...
Protection and Synchronization in Actor Systems
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1974-11)
This paper presents a unified method [called ENCASING] for dealing with the closely related issues of synchronization and protection in actor systems [Hewitt et al. 1973a, 1973b, 1974a; Greif and Hewitt 1975]. Actors are ...
Notes Relating to the Design of a High Quality Image Sensor
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-06)
Some of the information that as used in arriving at a design for a high quality image input device is documented. The device uses a PIN photo-diode directly coupled to an FET-input op-amp as the sensor and two moving-iron ...
The Evolution of Procedural Knowledge
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-01-16)
A focus on planning and debugging procedures underlies the enhanced proficiency of recent programs which solve problems and acquire new skills. By describing complex procedures as constituents of evolutionary sequences of ...
Ideas About Management of LISP Data Bases
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-01)
The trend toward larger data bases in A.I. programs makes it desirable to provide program support for the activity of building and maintaining LISP data bases. Many techniques can be drawn from present and proposed systems ...
Representing the Semantics of Natural Language as Constraint Expressions
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-01)
The issue of how to represent the "meaning" of an utterance is central to the problem of computer understanding of natural language. Rather than relying on ad-hoc structures or forcing the complexities of natural language ...
Kinematics, Statics, and Dynamics of Two-D Manipulators
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-06)
In order to get some feeling for the kinematics, statics, and dynamics of manipulators, it is useful to separate the problem of visualizing linkages in three-space from the basic mechanics. The general-purpose two-dimensional ...
The Facts of Light
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-05)
This is a random collection of facts about radiant and luminous energy. Some of this information may be useful in the design of photo-diode image sensors, in the set-up of lighting for television microscopes and the ...
