Abstract

It is still an open question how preliminary visual reflexes can be structured by auditory and visual modalities in order to recognize objects. Therefore, we propose a new method for a controlling strategy for an active vision system that learns to focus on relevant multi modal aspects of the environment. The method is bootstrapped by a bottom up visual saliency process in order to extract important visual points. In this paper, we present our first results and focus on the unsupervised generation of training data for a multi-modal object recognition. The performance is compared to a human evaluated database.
