Lecture # 1: Introduction
• A simple vision algorithm can identify the test examples even though
there is a certain amount of noise present
Machine Vision System
• There are two kinds of situations:
• Noise and/or distortions are present, hence misclassification occurs
• Noise and/or distortions are not present and still misinterpretation occurs
• The later is more dangerous situation since it indicates an unexpected
limitation of the technique
• Such situations may arise due to disorientation or displacement of the test
examples relative to the training set.
• This will lead us to another serious problem of insufficient training set
examples.
Machine Vision System
• Increasing the training is an obvious solution but this solution is
accompanied with further problems
• Problem of storage space
• Problem of generation of more training examples
• Problem of searching when examples are tested
• These problems are further exacerbated as we move closer to real-
life situation
• This is called ‘Combinatorial Explosion’
Machine Vision System
• Just calculate the possible binary patterns which can be formed using
a 20x20 grid.
• Hence such techniques are not only impractical but also theoretically
impossible.
