Object-class law

Probability law (15) describes the user s judgment as to what signal object is present. More specifically, it displays the user s judgment as to the probable values of the prior signal qm and the user s assessment of the strength of this judgment. This is clarified as follows. 

Suppose the user thinks that the prior qm ought to have values near a definite set of number Qm, called biases. Suppose also that the user wants to express this suspicion with the highest possible conviction. Then the user asserts that there is no spread possible about the Qm, or 

As to which object nm is present, this is where the image data in principle (19) enter in. Their effect is to force the estimate toward the true nm present. The effect of the Qm is to exert merely a beneficial biasing effect on the estimate, as shown later. 

An analogy is the corresponding problem of two-dimensional object restoration. Suppose that the object really is a gray transparency with a dark letter A imprinted on it. The Qmn now describe the ideal signal A and its background. But because the number N of photons passing through the transparency is finite, the actual number-count object nm will randomly depart from the ideal A. 

Alternatively, the user may have less conviction than is expressed by Eq. (20) about the unknown qm. If so, the user should permit ql (for example) to have a finite range of values, perhaps with Qx as now the most likely value (formerly it was the only value permitted). An example is

We shall next investigate a limited but interesting number of cases for which specific object-class laws p(ql9 . -, qM) are formed. Remarkably, in some cases the estimation principle (19) may itself be used to form p. In these cases we formally set all Xm = 0, because object class is defined independent of knowing the data. 

Students lack design experience. Each student has a plan for life after the B.S. degree. Many will choose employment as a chemical engineer. Some will attend a professional school (medicine, law, graduate school, and business are common). It is unusual to find two students in a class with common interests and similar career objectives. 

Entities are represented through classes, which can be ordered by means of superclasses and metaclasses. Class definitions can include attributes, possibly restricted through facets, as well as methods and laws. Different types of attributes are distinguished. Among those, so-called relational attributes can be used to represent binary relations between classes. Attributes values can be restricted through both facets and laws. Methods represent numerical or symbolical functions that allow to derive complex properties of an object from known (simple) ones by executing some procedural piece of code.
