A Productive, Systematic Framework for the Representation of Visual Structure

Abstract

We describe a unified framework for the understanding of struc(cid:173) ture representation in primate vision. A model derived from this framework is shown to be effectively systematic in that it has the ability to interpret and associate together objects that are related through a rearrangement of common "middle-scale" parts, repre(cid:173) sented as image fragments. The model addresses the same concerns as previous work on compositional representation through the use of what+where receptive fields and attentional gain modulation. It does not require prior exposure to the individual parts, and avoids the need for abstract symbolic binding.
