AMOR: an adaptive, multimodal architecture for visual object recognition

The general objective of this research was to develop a novel architecture for the difficult, but crucial, problem of recognising objects in visual scenes. An Adaptive, Multimodal architecture for Object Recognition (AMOR) was developed that extends existing unimodal (visual-only) systems in order t...
