Controlling eye movements with hidden Markov models

摘要

Advances in technology and in active vision research allow and encourage sequential visual information acquisition. Hidden Markov models (HMMs) can represent probabilistic sequences and probabilistic graph structures: here we explore their use in controlling the acquisition of visual information. We include a brief tutorial with two examples: (1) use input sequences to derive an aspect graph and (2) similarly derive a finite state machine for control of visual processing.
