B. Javidi et al., NONLINEAR TECHNIQUES IN OPTICAL-PATTERN RECOGNITION - INTRODUCTION BYTHE FEATURE EDITORS, Applied optics, 34(20), 1995, pp. 3856-3857
This feature of Applied Optics is dedicated to research in optical pat
tern-recognition techniques that utilize nonlinear devices and algorit
hms. Nonlinearities are employed in a variety of ways in optical patte
rn recognition and play an important role in both hardware implementat
ion and software development for optical pattern-recognition systems.
