The first keynote address, "A theory of biological vision," was given by Robert Hecht-Neilson, cofounder and chief scientist of HNC Software Inc. . He discussed how vision works in cortronic neural networks within the human brain. In fact, based on related hierarchical token-string representation concepts, the US Navy and DARPA have funded the development of an experimental vision object representation and segmentation system for the rapid measurement of visual object attributes.
