Volterra series analysis and synthesis of a neural network for velocity estimation.
The motion detection problem occurs frequently in many applications connected with computer vision. Researchers have studied motion detection based on naturally occurring biological circuits for over a century. In this paper, we propose and analyze a motion detection circuit which is based on nerve membrane conduction. It consists of two unidirectional neural networks connected in an opposing fashion. Volterra input-output (I-O) models are then derived for the network so that velocity estimation can be cast as a parameter estimation problem. The technique is demonstrated through simulation.
