Perceptual adaptation helps us identify faces
Adaptation is a fundamental property of perceptual processing. In low-level vision, it can calibrate perception to current inputs, increasing coding efficiency and enhancing discrimination around the adapted level. Adaptation also occurs in high-level vision, as illustrated by face aftereffects. However, the functional consequences of face adaptation remain uncertain. Here we investigated wheth...
متن کاملElements of person knowledge: Episodic recollection helps us to identify people but not to recognize their faces
Faces automatically draw attention, allowing rapid assessments of personality and likely behaviour. How we respond to people is, however, highly dependent on whether we know who they are. According to face processing models person knowledge comes from an extended neural system that includes structures linked to episodic memory. Here we use scalp recorded brain signals to demonstrate the specifi...
متن کاملThe General Movement Assessment Helps Us to Identify Preterm Infants at Risk for Cognitive Dysfunction
Apart from motor and behavioral dysfunctions, deficits in cognitive skills are among the well-documented sequelae of preterm birth. However, early identification of infants at risk for poor cognition is still a challenge, as no clear association between pathological findings based on neuroimaging scans and cognitive functions have been detected as yet. The Prechtl General Movement Assessment (G...
متن کاملRecognizing individual excellence helps us all
A mong the many ACM activities supported by your membership is the awards program. ACM announces about a dozen awards plus its newly inducted Fellows early in the year, and we hold a special banquet in June to honor the winners. Our most prestigious technical award is the ACM A.M. Turing Award, given annually since 1966. To qualify for this award, an individual’s contributions to the computing ...
متن کاملPerceptual shape sensitivity to upright and inverted faces is reflected in neuronal adaptation
Using an fMR-adaptation paradigm for different face morphing levels we have recently demonstrated a narrow neuronal tuning to faces even at the sub-exemplar level which was tightly related to perceptual discrimination (Gilaie-Dotan and Malach, 2007). However, it is unclear whether this relationship is unique to faces or is a general property of object representations including unfamiliar object...
