For invariant pattern recognition, a method using simulated annealing algorithm is introduced. Near optimal quantized reference functions are designed to be displayed on liquid crystal spatial light modulators. Mach-Zehnder joint transform correlator is adopted as the system for recognition of color targets. From numerical results, the optoelectronic pattern recognition system with simulated annealing algorithm shows a promising capability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
