Where Is Recognition Used?

April 10, 2009

Image Recognition is used in many applications including:
 Optical Character Recognition
 Automatic Target Recognition
 Quality Control (e.g., Robot Vision)
 Fingerprint Identification
 Iris Identification
 Biometric Face Recognition
The algorithms underlying these applications are quite different but they work using a common principle – Reduce the collection of images to a set with a common identified structure and then measure the structure. For example, a typical approach to face recognition might be to measure the difference between eyes. These types of algorithms, and the technologies based on them, are termed CONSTRAINED.
