## Abstract

A model of human visual long-term memory with ability tor seneralization baa been synthesized. Perceptive structure of the system may be either parallel (multilayered retina) or successive (a network scanning a contour by tracing). The synthesized model of retina performs a number of transformation of information as in a visual analyzer - such as intensification of contrast between an object and its background, contour or outline ~xtraction, reaction to the movement of an object (in a particular direction at a certain velocity). It is the code tree that is used as a structure for storing codes in long-term memory. This structure explains the dependence of the response time upon the number of alternatives and allows studying the dynamics of the following trajectoria (path) reduction occuring during learning process.
