Abstract: Aspects of visual perception mechanism and pattern recognition methods are examined jointly. Latest results from neurophysiology in studying the visual system of living beings are discussed. Another view on coarse-to-fine approach for technical vision tasks is presented. On the basis of systemological analysis of neurophysiology sources a new hypothesis about visual neuron's functioning is proposed. This hypothesis explains the mechanism and takes into account receptive fields excitatory zones resizing during visual act.
