In th e starkest light th e debate can be c haracteri zed as one about th e role of exp licit repr ese ntations . The extreme traditionalists strive for a detail ed re pr ese ntation of the 3D world while the other ex tr em e adopts a strict be haviorist stance which esc hews representations in favor of \"direct sensing . \" This panel will ex plore the roles of action, representation , and purpose in computer vision and, in doing so, will hopefully dis cover areas of agreement .","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/230","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/0230.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/230.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/bibtex/230","volume":{"slug":"1993","title":"Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1993","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/","year":1993,"location":"Chambéry, France","dates":"","editors":"Ruzena Bajcsy","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Panels","track":"Panels","number":230,"pages":{"first":1661,"last":1665},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
