Map-Seeking Circuits in Visual Cognition A Computational Mechanism for Biological and Machine Vision

"What Arathorn has done is brilliant. The question of how the brain forms representations of objects which are invariant to changes in position, size, viewing angle, etc. is a deep and mysterious one, and he has come up with a clever solution based on remapping input patterns using a neural network. It provides the beginnings of a framework for thinking about visual cognition in neural terms, something that is sorely needed in the field."-Bruno Olshausen, University of California, Davis
