SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING A CHARACTER-OF-INTEREST

摘要

A system and method for identifying characters-of-interest from markings on a surface of an object. The system includes a vector-generating module configured to receive and analyze an image of the markings to provide a feature vector having a vector address. The system also includes a sparse distributed memory (SDM) module. The SDM module includes hard locations having stored vector location addresses within an address space and stored content counters. The location addresses form multiple concentrated groups within the address space. The concentrated groups are associated with different characters of an identification system. The system also includes an identification module that is configured to identify the character(s)-of-interest using the SDM module.
