Objects are the core meaningful elements in our visual environment. Classic theories of
object vision focus upon object recognition and are elegant and simple. Some of their …

A rich behavioral literature has shown that human object recognition is supported by a
representation of shape that is tolerant to variations in an object's appearance …

The primacy of words over images has deep roots in Western culture. But what if the two are
inextricably linked, equal partners in meaning-making? Written and drawn entirely as …

People with damage to the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) have specific problems making
decisions, whereas their other cognitive functions are spared. Neurophysiological studies …

Edge detection technology aims to identify and extract the boundary information of image
pixel mutation, which is a research hotspot in the field of computer vision. This technology …

Visual categorization is thought to occur in the human ventral temporal cortex (VTC), but
how this categorization is achieved is still largely unknown. In this Review, we consider the …

INTRODUCTION Compositionality, generalization, and learning from a few examples are
among the hallmarks of human intelligence. CAPTCHAs (Completely Automated Public …

In addition to bottom-up input, the visual cortex receives large amounts of feedback from
other cortical areas [1–3]. One compelling example of feedback activation of early visual …

A novel Boolean Map based Saliency (BMS) model is proposed. An image is characterized
by a set of binary images, which are generated by randomly thresholding the image's color …

First published in 1995, The Visual Brain in Action remains a seminal publication in the
cognitive sciences. It presents a model for understanding the visual processing underlying …
