<i>&gt; How can the human mind do this?</i><p>I think the most interesting point about this is that the human mind doesn&#x27;t know how the human mind does it.<p>I wonder what kind of software they compared to Constable Collins. Did that software use designed features or learned features? What sort of data set was it trained on?<p>It wouldn&#x27;t surprise me if current state of the art software that learns features from real CCTV footage fared a lot better than what they were using in 2011.
