I'm sorry to say, but your understanding of image processing fundamentals is absolutely wrong

TL;DR

This paper argues that perception and cognition are distinct components in vision systems, challenging the view that modern systems must integrate both as a unified cognitive process.

Contribution

It clarifies the separation between perceptual and cognitive faculties in vision systems, providing a conceptual framework for better understanding their roles.

Findings

Perception and cognition are separate in human and artificial vision systems.

Modern vision systems do not need to be viewed as cognitively-enabled.

The distinction aids in designing more effective vision models.

Abstract

The ongoing discussion whether modern vision systems have to be viewed as visually-enabled cognitive systems or cognitively-enabled vision systems is groundless, because perceptual and cognitive faculties of vision are separate components of human (and consequently, artificial) information processing system modeling.
