There will be many occurances of the smaller subregions, corresponding to all different sizes and positions of Tom's face in the raster. In other words, the Tom's face region is fractal. So, of course, is the Dick's face region, but note that at they lower limits of resolution they begin to overlap; after a while you're just able to recognize a human face but not say whose. So even if you started out saying "only 16K-D space, fixed resolution," you wind up having to work with the other dimensionalities anyway.
Are you saying that a hierarchy of categories is just a linear chain of resolutions? I don't see why you need to work with multiple dimensionalities - at least, when identifying Tom's face, you need only deal with one dimensionality, although you might use fewer dimensions when looking for any old human face. ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?list_id=303
