Abstract

We present a method for biologically-inspired object recognition with one-shot learning of object appearance. We use a computationally efficient model of V1 keypoints to select object parts with the highest information content and model their surroundings using simple colour features. This map-like representation is fed into a dynamical neural network which performs pose, scale and translation estimation of the object given a set of previously observed object views. We demonstrate the feasibility of our algorithm for cognitive robotic scenarios and evaluate classification performance on a dataset of household items.
