An interactive model accounts for both ultra-rapid superordinate classification and basic-level advantage in object recognition

While people are faster to categorize objects at an intermediate or basic level of specificity (e.g. “bird”), several recent studies have shown them to have much earlier access to more general category information (e.g. “animal”). Ultra-rapid superordinate classification has been taken as evidence that recognition processes are largely feed-forward. In simulations with a deep neural network mod...
