Learnable and Non-Learnable Visual Concepts
Abstract
Valiant’s theory of the learnable is applied to visual concepts in digital pictures. Several visual concepts that are easily perceived by humans are shown to be learnable from examples by a simple algorithm. These include inaccurate copies of a picture, multiple objects, and lines in a fixed slope. However, there are simple characterizations of visual concepts which are apparently non-learnable from examples. It is shown that templates for template matching cannot be learned from a feasible number of positive examples.
