Quote of the Day
by JS
… in the 1960s almost no one realized that machine vision was difficult. The field had to go through the same experience as the machine translation field did in its fiascoes of the 1950s before it was at last realized that here were some problems that had to be taken seriously. The reason for this misperception is that we humans are ourselves so good at vision. … the idea that extracting edges and lines from images might be at all difficult simply did not occur to those who had not tried to do it.
– David Marr, Vision
