Domain-Specificity in Shape Categorization and Perception
We examine the influence of domain-specific knowledge on the process of learning and representing simple visual categories. Depending on whether subjects’ construe simple objects as living kinds or machines, they show differential sensitivity to the importance of basic shape features. In particular, subjects who treated the objects as machines placed less importance on coarse shape differences ...
متن کاملCulture as Cognition and Behavior: How Categorization Can Shape Interaction (and How Leaders Can Shape Categorization?)
For decades, economists paid minuscule attention to culture, but this is changing rapidly. One view of culture emphasizes “values that ethnic, religious, and social groups transmit fairly unchanged from generation to generation” (Guiso et al., 2006: 23), and one way to model such values is to enrich the arguments of an actor’s utility function to include actions by others in the actor’s social ...
متن کاملHow experimental trial context affects perceptual categorization
To understand object categorization, participants are tested in experiments often quite different from how people experience object categories in the real world. Learning and knowledge of categories is measured in discrete experimental trials, those trials may or may not provide feedback, trials appear one after another, after some fixed inter-trial interval, with hundreds of trials in a row, w...
متن کاملA Generative Model for Attractor Dynamics
Attractor networks, which map an input space to a discrete output space, are useful for pattern completion. However, designing a net to have a given set of attractors is notoriously tricky; training procedures are CPU intensive and often produce spurious afuactors and ill-conditioned attractor basins. These difficulties occur because each connection in the network participates in the encoding o...
متن کاملExplaining the Timing of Natural Scene Understanding with a Computational Model of Perceptual Categorization
Observers can rapidly perform a variety of visual tasks such as categorizing a scene as open, as outdoor, or as a beach. Although we know that different tasks are typically associated with systematic differences in behavioral responses, to date, little is known about the underlying mechanisms. Here, we implemented a single integrated paradigm that links perceptual processes with categorization ...
