Although researchers have been recording the human electroencephalogram (EEG) for
almost a century, we still do not completely understand what cognitive processes are …

A number of studies have explored visual symmetry processing by measuring event related
potentials and neural oscillatory activity. There is a sustained posterior negativity (SPN) …

Symmetry is an important and prominent feature of the visual world. It has been studied as a
basis for image segmentation and perceptual organization, but it also plays a role in higher …

A traditional line of work starting with the Gestalt school has shown that patterns vary in
strength and salience; a difference in “Perceptual goodness.” The Holographic weight of …

This review of symmetry perception has six parts. Psychophysical studies have investigated
symmetry perception for over 100 years (part 1). Neuroscientific studies on symmetry …

Several computational models explain how symmetry might be detected and represented in
the human brain. However, while there is an abundance of psychophysical studies on …

Neuroimaging work has shown that visual symmetry activates extrastriate brain areas, most
consistently the lateral occipital complex (LOC). LOC activation increases with proportion of …

Visualization and visual analytic tools amplify one's perception of data, facilitating deeper
and faster insights that can improve decision making. For multidimensional data sets, one of …

When symmetry is present in the retinal image, a symmetry-sensitive network in the
extrastriate visual areas activates, and response magnitude scales with degree of regularity …

Symmetry is a highly salient feature in the visual world, abundant in both man-made and
natural objects. In particular, humans find reflectional symmetry most salient …
