Study Notes

Neural Networks

The first layer in a neural network assigns a weight to each connection between neurons in the second layer and the neurons in the first layer.
The purpose of adding a bias to the weighted sum in a neuron is to shift the activation function.
The output layer is responsible for making predictions or classifications.
The purpose of backpropagation is to learn neural networks by minimizing the error between predictions and actual outputs.

Object Perception

The Recognition-by-components model proposes that objects are recognized by breaking them down into their component parts.
The template matching model proposes that objects are recognized by matching them to a stored template.
The feature-analysis model proposes that objects are recognized by extracting and analyzing their features.
The main problem with the template matching model is that it requires a large number of templates to be stored.
The main problem with the feature-analysis model is that it can be computationally intensive.

Perception

The process of perception involves the interpretation of sensory information.
Top-down processing emphasizes the importance of information coming from the outside world.
Bottom-up processing is guided by higher-level processes such as beliefs, expectations, and memories.
The term used to describe the combination of stimulus information from sensory receptors in object perception is data-driven processing.
The term used to describe the effect of expectations on perception is top-down processing.

Attention and Bias

The bias term in artificial neural networks (ANN) shifts the activation function.
The purpose of the weights in ANN is to assign importance to each connection.
Overfitting occurs when a neural network model fits the training data but fails to generalize to new data.
Underfitting occurs when a neural network model is not complex enough to represent the data.

Cognitive Psychology

The Salar de Uyuni is a region in Bolivia where the human eye loses its ability to establish depth.
The consequence of the human eye losing its ability to establish depth in the Salar de Uyuni is that the moon appears larger when it is near the horizon.
The term for the failure to recognize particular people by their faces is prosopagnosia.
The term for the inability to recognize or identify visual objects despite relatively good visual perception is visual agnosia.

Brain and Vision

The lateral occipital lobe is associated with object recognition.
The fusiform gyrus is associated with face recognition.
The term for the tendency to ignore or be unaware of information on one half of the visual field is visual neglect.
The term for the phenomenon where patients with blindsight can correctly guess the emotions expressed by people with angry or happy faces is unconscious vision.
