What is The Measurement Of Visual Motion (acm Distinguished Dissertation) about?

Computer scientists designing machine vision systems, psychologists working in visual perception, visual neurophysiologists, and theoretical biologists will derive a deeper understanding of visual function—in particular the computations that the human visual system uses to analyze motion—from the important research reported in this book. <p>The organization of movement in the changing image that reaches the eye provides our visual system with a valuable source of information for analyzing the structure of our surroundings. This book examines the measurement of this movement and the use of relative movement to locate the boundaries of physical objects in the environment. It investigates the nature of the computations that are necessary to perform this analysis by any vision system, biological or artificial.</p> <p>The author first defines the goals of these visual tasks, reveals the properties of the physical world that a vision system can rely upon to achieve such goals, and suggests general methods that can be used to carry out the tasks. From the general methods, she designs algorithms specifying a particular sequence of computations that a vision system can execute to perform th
