Books by author: Shimon Ullman

Ullman's book articulates a lot of the ideas I've been thinking about lately in regard to perception (in particular, classification and identification). From a Society of Mind perspective, there's some good stuff here on hierarchies and level-bands. I particularly like Ullman's view that classification and identification are points on a continuum rather than separate tasks. I don't think the sections on image warping will be at all useful to me in my research, but many of the philosophical ideas will be.
