Abstract :
The challenge of effectively focusing a large array of sensor system hardware (potentially including processors, communication networks, and the sensors themselves) in time-constrained and uncertain environments is a daunting challenge. The biology provides us some clues as higher-level organisms routinely accomplish complex tasks through iterative attention focusing. Thus, in the current paper we investigate attention-focusing mechanism of biological organisms for automated object recognition
