| Research Abstract |
We achieved the main object of this research project to establish a methodology of information theoretical approach for active sensing systems. With this achievement, we have also established an analysis of mechanisms of control in human visual sensing activities. We considered how our human sensors work out their strategy to obtain most effective information. The main key was the"mutual information", which estimates the amount of information flow between an information source point and its destination. Based on this notion, we accomplished a new framework of description for active sensing systems.
