Two relatively independent areas of visual cognition research examine important aspects of visual object understanding: Object Recognition and Perceptual Categorization. These areas have focused on ...

When searching for your flashlight in a tent at night, you must rely on tactile information to identify objects. The visual representation of the shape of your flashlight might facilitate your search.

Abstract: Fine-grained visual categorization (FGVC) aims to distinguish visual objects from multiple subcategories of the coarse-grained category. Subtle inter-class differences among various ...

Humans treat 'inferred' visual objects generated by the brain as more reliable than external images from the real world, according to new research. Humans treat 'inferred' visual objects generated by ...

In work that could aid efforts to develop more brain-like computer vision systems, MIT neuroscientists have tricked the visual brain into confusing one object with another, thereby demonstrating that ...

Humans treat 'inferred' visual objects generated by the brain as more reliable than external images from the real world, according to new research published in eLife. The study, from the University of ...

Summary: A new study has uncovered how the brain efficiently encodes and recalls visual memories—by organizing them into categories and using the precise timing of neuronal activity. Researchers ...

Summary: Researchers have developed a groundbreaking technique to “write” new learning patterns directly into the brain using real-time neurofeedback from fMRI imaging. Participants in the study ...

The CLIP network excels in various tasks, but struggles with text-visual images i.e., images that contain both text and visual objects; it risks confusing textual and visual representations. To ...
