In this review, we synthesize the existing literature investigating personally familiar face
processing and highlight the remarkable, enhanced processing efficiency resulting from real …

Few findings in cognitive science have proved as influential as the composite face effect.
When the top half of one face is aligned with the bottom half of another, and presented …

Previous work has demonstrated that the human visual system can detect animals in
complex natural scenes very efficiently and rapidly. In particular, using a saccadic choice …

A large body of research supports the hypothesis that the human visual system does not
process a face as a collection of separable facial features but as an integrated perceptual …

Age is a primary social dimension. We behave differently toward people as a function of how
old we perceive them to be. Age perception relies on cues that are correlated with age, such …

Model integrated computing (MIC) is gaining increased attention as an effective and efficient
method for develo**, maintaining, and evolving large-scale, domain-specific software …

Human observers are experts at face recognition, yet a simple 180 rotation of a face
photograph decreases recognition performance substantially. A full understanding of this …

Recent experimental work has demonstrated the existence of extremely rapid saccades
toward faces in natural scenes that can be initiated only 100 ms after image onset (Crouzet …

Faces are a rich source of information about the people around us. Identity, state of mind,
emotions, intentions, age, gender, ethnic background, attractiveness and a host of other …

Three studies investigated developmental changes in facial expression processing,
between 3years-of-age and adulthood. For adults and older children, the addition of …
