Features of Similarity

Amos Tversky
- 01 Jul 1977 - 
TL;DR: The metric and dimensional assumptions that underlie the geometric representation of similarity are questioned on both theoretical and empirical grounds and a set of qualitative assumptions are shown to imply the contrast model, which expresses the similarity between objects as a linear combination of the measures of their common and distinctive features.

Shape matching and object recognition using shape contexts

TL;DR: This paper presents work on computing shape models that are computationally fast and invariant basic transformations like translation, scaling and rotation, and proposes shape detection using a feature called shape context, which is descriptive of the shape of the object.

SVM-KNN: Discriminative Nearest Neighbor Classification for Visual Category Recognition

TL;DR: This work considers visual category recognition in the framework of measuring similarities, or equivalently perceptual distances, to prototype examples of categories and proposes a hybrid of these two methods which deals naturally with the multiclass setting, has reasonable computational complexity both in training and at run time, and yields excellent results in practice.

Darwin's mistake: Explaining the discontinuity between human and nonhuman minds

TL;DR: It is suggested that recent symbolic-connectionist models of cognition shed new light on the mechanisms that underlie the gap between human and nonhuman minds.

Primacy of wholistic processing and global/local paradigm: a critical review.

TL;DR: The research within the global/local paradigm is reviewed, and it is suggested that a direct comparison between processing of wholistic and component properties is needed to support the hypothesis about the perceptual primacy ofWholistic processing.
