Abstract
Recently many researches have been studied in the human vision model to solve the Wblem of the machine vision. Starting from research on the human visual system, first, we investigate the mechanisms of retina through physiological and biological evidence. In retina, input data was processed information processing that was data reduction edge detection, and emphasizing region. The processed image was recognized by region. In this paper, we proposed retinal algorithms that process data reduction and edge detection by the wavelet transform and emphasize region contrast. In experiments, the proposed model simulates processing the retina outputs in the levels and compares with outputs.
Keywords
