Pattern Recognition, 1986
Abstract The laboratory pigeon is able to classify images into natural categories such as people, trees, fish, etc. A series of experiments suggested that the pigeon does so by cueing on specific features. There was no tolerance of noise or of perspective distortion, and no recovery of the three-dimensional target.
