Recent neuroscience research shows that our brain’s organization of the visual world occurs much earlier than previously ...

Visual perception and scene recognition encompass the complex cognitive processes by which humans extract, interpret and respond to visual information in real-world environments. This field ...

Our brains begin to create internal representations of the world around us from the first moment we open our eyes. We perceptually assemble components of scenes into recognizable objects thanks to ...

We take our understanding of where we are for granted, until we lose it. When we get lost in nature or a new city, our eyes and brains kick into gear, seeking familiar objects that tell us where we ...

Deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) don't see objects the way humans do -- using configural shape perception -- and that could be dangerous in real-world AI applications. The study employed ...

Three decades of psychological research show that our visual and auditory senses work together. Famously, an experiment by Robert Sekuler (1997) found that the presence or absence of a clicking sound ...

What if you could teach a computer to recognize a zebra without ever showing it one? Imagine a world where object detection isn’t bound by the limits of endless training data or high-powered hardware.
