Abstract

We demonstrate the ability of a two-layer network of thresholded summation units to support representation of 3D objects in which several distinct 2D views are stored for each object. Using unsupervised Hebbian relaxation, the network learned to recognize ten objects from different viewpoints. The training process led to the emergence of compact representations of the specific input views. When tested on novel views of the same objects, the network exhibited a substantial generalization capability. In simulated psychophysical experiments, the network's behavior was qualitatively similar to that of human subjects.
