Abstract

The most important roles of our model of human perceptive process are played by the evaluation function (e.f) and the control strategy. The e.f. is related to the ratio between the entropy of one region or zone of the picture and the entropy of the entire picture. The control strategy determines the optimal path in the search tree so that the nodes of the optimal path have the less as possible entropy.
