Abstract
The systems and methods can apply a plurality of different classifiers to a given input image instead of a single classifier. The plurality of classifiers produce a plurality of classified images based on the input image, which are sequentially displayed to a human observer. The sequential display of the classified images produces a dynamic classified image, in which the classification of the input image varies with time depending on which one of the classified image is displayed at a given instant. The dynamic classified image provides dynamic stimuli that encourages the human visual system to excuse occasional classification errors from a minority of the classified images and to retain generally correct classifications from a majority of the classified images.
Claims17
A method for generating a dynamic classified image, comprising:
- applying a plurality of different classifiers to an input image, wherein each of the plurality of classifiers produces a classified image based on the input image;
- and
- sequentially displaying the classified images from the plurality of classifiers.
A method for generating a dynamic classified image, comprising:
- applying a plurality of different classifiers to an input image, wherein each of the plurality of classifiers produces a classified image based on the input image;
- and
- sequentiallv displaying the classified images from the plurality of classifiers, wherein the displaying step sequentially displays the classified images at a rate of between 10 to 30 classified images a second.
A system for generating a dynamic classified image, comprising:
- a plurality of different classifiers configured to process the same input image, wherein each of the plurality of classifiers produces a classified image based on the input image;
- and
- a dynamic classified image processor coupled to the plurality of classifiers, wherein the dynamic classified image processor sequentially outputs the classified images from the plurality of classifiers.
A system for generating a dynamic classified image, comprising:
- a plurality of different classifiers configured to process the same input image, wherein each of the plurality of classifiers produces a classified image based on the input image;
- and
- a dynamic classified image processor coupled to the plurality of classifiers, wherein the dynamic classified image processor sequentially outputs the classified images from the plurality of classifiers, wherein the dynamic classified image processor is adapted to sequentially display the classified images at a rate of between 10 to 30 classified images a second.
