A Study on Image Recognition by Orientation Information

There are a lot of characteristics in Human visual information processing when image information is transmitted from retina to visual cortex. Among them, we analyze the sensibility of the orientation and cortical magnification on an image. The fact that the small fovea is allotted a large area on the cortex is called the cortical magnification factor. We compare recognition rates by weight of vertical, horizontal and diagonal response. In statistics analysis, we show that a particular simple cell responds best to a bar with a vertical orientation. After then, we will apply the characteristics to Human visual system.
