We perceive the shapes and material properties of objects quickly and reliably despite the
complexity and objective ambiguities of natural images. Typical images are highly complex …

A dominant view in the cognitive neuroscience of object vision is that regions of the ventral
visual pathway exhibit some degree of category selectivity. However, recent findings …

Primates can recognize faces across a range of viewing conditions. Representations of
individual identity should thus exist that are invariant to accidental image transformations …

Does the world appear the same to everyone? Does what we know determine what we see?
Why do we see the world as we do? Vision is our most dominant sense. From the light that …

With seemingly little effort, humans can both identify an object across large changes in
orientation and extend category membership to novel exemplars. Although researchers …

Predictions from perceptual load theory (Lavie, 1995, 2005) regarding object recognition
across the same or different viewpoints were tested. Results showed that high perceptual …

Despite their anatomical and functional distinctions, there is growing evidence that the
dorsal and ventral visual pathways interact to support object recognition. However, the exact …

Abstract In 1992, Goodale and Milner proposed a division of labor in the visual pathways of
the primate cerebral cortex. According to their account, the ventral pathway, which projects …

Two experiments examined developmental changes in children's visual recognition of
common objects during the period of 18 to 24 months. Experiment 1 examined children's …

Gestalt psychologists have identified a range of conditions in which humans organize
elements of a scene into a group or whole, and perceptual grouping principles play an …
