متن کاملHow Does Our Visual System Achieve Shift and Size Invariance?
The question of shift and size invariance in the primate visual system is discussed. After a short review of the relevant neurobiology and psychophysics, a more detailed analysis of computational models is given. The two main types of networks considered are the dynamic routing circuit model and invariant feature networks, such as the neocognitron. Some specific open questions in context of the...
متن کاملLiteracy breaks mirror invariance for visual stimuli: a behavioral study with adult illiterates.
The ability to recognize 2 mirror images as the same picture across left-right inversions exists early on in humans and other primates. In order to learn to read, however, one must discriminate the left-right orientation of letters and distinguish, for instance, b from d. We therefore reasoned that literacy may entail a loss of mirror invariance. To evaluate this hypothesis, we asked adult lite...
متن کاملHow does the mirror neuron system change during development?
It has been suggested that the mirror neuron system (MNS) enables the understanding of others’ intentions by simply observing their actions. As Lepage and Théoret’s paper highlights, while the MNS has been extensively studied in adult humans and in monkeys, very little is known about its development. What properties of the MNS change during development, or even when in development a functioning...
متن کاملVisual System: How Does Blindsight Arise?
Some patients can discriminate unseen visual stimuli within a field defect caused by damage to the primary visual cortex. The pathways for this 'blindsight' have never been established, but recent studies implicate hitherto overlooked cells in the thalamic LGN.
