A Bayesian hierarchical model for learning natural scene categories

TL;DR: This work proposes a novel approach to learn and recognize natural scene categories by representing the image of a scene by a collection of local regions, denoted as codewords obtained by unsupervised learning.

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.

The fundamental plan of the retina

TL;DR: The fundamental structural principles of the retina give a bottom-up view of the strategies used in the retina's processing of visual information and suggest new questions for physiological experiments and modeling.
