Study Notes
Theories of Object Recognition and Brain Processing
- Captcha is a bot prevention program using distorted letters to prevent template recognition by bots
- Top-Down processing theory suggests that we recognize objects as a whole and switched to words to aid perception
- Feature Analysis Theory argues that we recognize objects by identifying a combination of features
- The RBC model by Biederman suggests that we recognize objects by 3D components called geons
- The model explains that adding color and texture makes it easier to distinguish objects
- Limitations of the RBC model include difficulty in recognizing objects with unique features
- The ongoing debate is whether we recognize objects as parts or as a whole
- Repetition Suppression (RS) phenomenon suggests that brain activation lessens with repeated exposure to an object
- Perspective of objects matters in perceiving them, as shown by RS experiments
- Left hemisphere of the brain is view invariant, while the right hemisphere is view dependent
- Dorsal and Ventral Streams are two parallel processing pathways for perceiving information
- The Ventral Stream helps identify objects and link them to memory, while the Dorsal Stream helps understand object location and usage
