How does the cortex construct color?
W is a color not a color? When it’s a wavelength. This may surprise those who were taught that color is carried by the dominant wavelength of the light ref lected from an object. And you’d be confused in good company; Isaac Newton, for example, believed that ‘‘every body ref lects its own color more copiously than the rest.’’ The colors we perceive, however, are determined not only by the wavel...
متن کاملColor Vision: How the Cortex Represents Color
Our understanding of how we see color has benefited from the long tradition of visual psychophysics. More recently, models and methods from psychophysics are guiding modern neuroimaging experiments on color vision. Combining the two techniques can lead to discoveries that neither can make alone.
متن کاملHow does your cortex grow?
Understanding human cortical maturation is a central goal for developmental neuroscience. Significant advances toward this goal have come from two recent strands of in vivo structural magnetic resonance imaging research: (1) longitudinal study designs have revealed that factors such as sex, cognitive ability, and disease are often better related to variations in the tempo of anatomical change t...
متن کاملHow Does the Hue Contribute to Construct Better Colour Features?
We explore the impact of including hue in a feature construction algorithm for colour target detection. Hue has a long standing record as a good attribute in colour segmentation, so it is expected to strengthen features generated by only RGB. Moreover, it may open the door to infer compact feature maps for skin detection. However, contrary to our expectations, those new features where hue parti...
متن کاملHow do children construct the color lexicon? : Restructuring the domain as a connected system
The present study investigated how children learn the meanings of basic color words and are immersed into the language-specific system of the color lexicon. The study examined how children discover the boundaries of color names by having 3-, 4-, and 5year-old children produce names for 93 color patches. We found that even 3-year-olds children can map color words to its typical referents. At the...
