Yes, for automatic term mapping the Cognitive Cyc sensor will read a symbolic proposition or the equivalent in some structured form. For rich, information-rich sensors I would follow the pattern given by James Albus: Grouping, Focus Attention, and Search. He uses sliding windows to detect regions of interest at the lowest resolution, and so forth. His (NIST) ideas have been demonstrated with autonomous vehicle navigation. And thanks again for the tip you me - to consider Albus. -Steve -- =========================================================== Stephen L.
