TLDR
Interpret as mentioned in this paper is a heuristic scene description system that uses knowledge about the world in a variety of ways to produce a description of the scene that is consistent with its input.

Recovering intrinsic scene characteristics from images

TL;DR: It is suggested that an appropriate role of early visual processing is to describe a scene in terms of intrinsic (vertical) characteristics -- such as range, orientation, reflectance, and incident illumination -- of the surface element visible at each point in the image.

Parametric correspondence and chamfer matching: two new techniques for image matching

TL;DR: The matching of image and map features is performed rapidly by a new technique, called "chamfer matching", that compares the shapes of two collections of shape fragments, at a cost proportional to linear dimension, rather than area.

Three-Dimensional Computer Vision

TL;DR: A complete production system is proposed which makes use of unified geometric models to be shared by CAD, CAM, and visual processing, and can solve a second difficulty in applying 3-dimensional computer vision to industry, namely the problem of the extensive programming effort.

Mental models in cognitive science

TL;DR: For instance, the authors argues that cognitive science does not quite exist: its precursors do, but it lacks a clear identity, and the major function of this conference should be to concentrate our minds on what that identity might be.

Mental Models in Cognitive Science

TL;DR: The authors should reject the view that cognititie science is merely a clever ruse dreamed up to gain research funds-that it is nothing more than six disciplines in search of a grant-giving agency.

Learning Structural Descriptions From Examples

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method to solve the problem of energy efficiency in the context of electrical engineering, and demonstrate that it can be achieved by using energy minimization techniques.

Camera Models and Machine Perception

TL;DR: A parametric model for a computer-controlled moveable camera on a pan-tilt head that expresses the transform relating object space to image space as a function of the control variables of the camera is developed.

An Operator Which Locates Edges in Digitized Pictures

TL;DR: A unique optimal solution for an edge operator results, where the operator obtains the best fit of an ideal edge element to any empirically obtained edge element.
