Abstract
Recently, due to the advance in dynamic image processing, computer animation, augmented reality (AR), and so forth, it has become increasingly apparent that the study of four-dimensional pattern processing (three-dimensional pattern processing with time axis) should be very important. Thus, the study of four-dimensional automata as the computational model of four-dimensional pattern processing has been meaningful. From this point of view, we first introduced a four-dimensional automaton in 2002. In the multi-dimensional pattern processing, designers often use a strategy whereby features are extracted by projecting high-dimensional space on low-dimensional space. In this paper, from this viewpoint, we introduce a new computational model, k-neighborhood template A-type three-dimensional bounded cellular acceptor (abbreviated as A -3BCA(k)) on four-dimensional input tapes, and discuss hierarchy based on neighborhood template about A-3BCA(k).
