摘要
Associative techniques are useful in computer vision because they are notably able to robustify a recognition system. The noise-like coding model of associative memory has been already applied successfully to image-classification. This paper describes the implementation of the associative system on transputer-based architectures. After explaining the model's basic formalism, the paper marks out the key-generation mechanism, the data-mapping strategy, and the hierarchical processor organization. The basic result of this research is a general methodology for efficient HW configuration of real-time associative visual systems. The system's efficiency can be predicted by theoretical derivations, in which both the FFT-computation speed and the data-transmission speed play a crucial role. Experimental results including different HW configuration and different image-sizes always confirmed theoretical expectations.
