Abstract
The term pattern classification refers simply to the process whereby an unknown object within an image is identified as belonging to one particular group from among a number of possible object groups. For example, in automatic sorting of integrated circuit amplifier packages there might be three possible types: metal-can, dual-in-line and flat-pack. The unknown object should be classified as being only one of these types.
