To interact with the world, we have to make sense of the continuous sensory input conveying
information about our environment. A recent surge of studies has investigated the processes …

The ability to quickly and accurately categorize our environment into meaningful scene
categories has been linked to the fast processing of global scene properties. Here, we …

It usually only takes a single glance to categorize our environment into different scene
categories (eg a kitchen or a highway). Object information has been suggested to play a …

Visual categorization improves when object-context associations in scenes are semantically
consistent, thus predictable from schemas stored in long-term memory. However, it is …

Recent behavioral evidence suggests that the semantic relationships between isolated
objects can influence attentional allocation, with highly semantically related objects showing …

Significant objects in a scene can make a great contribution to scene recognition. Besides
the three scene-selective regions: parahippocampal place area (PPA), retrosplenial …

Scene meaning is processed rapidly, with 'gist'extracted even when presentation duration
spans a few dozen milliseconds. This has led some to suggest a primacy of bottom-up visual …

Abstract [eng] We rarely think about how we perceive objects in our surroundings. We can
categorize objects–divide them into groups according to their similarities. Objects can be …

Background: The present study concerns parallel and serial processing of visual
information, or more specifically, whether visual objects are identified successively or …
