  • Process for automatic pattern evaluation with the aid of a rapid image processing and circuit for carrying out the process
    Patent number: 4254399
    Abstract: A circuit is described which makes use of a mathematical transformation based solely on AND and OR connections for the purpose of recognizing patterns, and a process for localizing this pattern within a zone or range. By means of the direct connection of AND and OR gates, a completely parallel processing of each individual bit is achieved in the arithmetic and logic unit so implemented, which signifies a fraction of the processing time as compared to full adders. Simultaneously the equipment is capable of recognizing a specific pattern (object) from a multitude of mutually nested structures (neighborhood) and to localize it by a subsequent procedure.
