title: A model of a human recognition system with 'thinking'.
abstract: The human system of pattern recognition is explored. This system utilizes the method of syntactic feature comparison, activation of the patterns containing the feature, and sorting among the activated patterns. Both the pattern recognition process without thinking and with thinking are discussed, and examples are given. Contrary to the usual concept, the more complicated pattern has a better chance to be recognized correctly.
