What is Recognition?
'''Recognition''', or '''recognize''', is when [[human]]s or [[animal]]s know something about the surrounding objects or [[being]]s. For example, an animal might recognize another animal as an [[enemy]] or [[friend]], [[dangerous]] or harmless. These [[cognitive]] acts relate to the beings' perception, [[memory]], [[learning]], and [[experience]]. == Pattern recognition in software == In [[computer program]]s, pattern recognition tries to teach computers to [[perception|perceive]] and recognize things as accurately as possible, how people do it or better. Pattern recognition by [[computers]] distinguishes objects, images, [[fingerprint]]s, [[writing]], [[audio]], [[face]]s and other things automatically. == Politics == When a [[country]] recognizes another country, it means that the first country believes that the second country is legal and has a right to be a country. Countries that recognize each other have diplomatic relations. That means they send [[diplomat]]s to each other, and make different kinds of agreements, about [[trade]], [[international]] [[law]]s and other things. {{Politics-stub}} [[Category:Software]] [[Category:Politics]] [[Category:Cognition]]
