We conducted two event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) experiments to investigate the neural substrates of visual object recognition in humans. We used a repetition-priming method ...

EPFL researchers are developing AI models that could one day enable vision prosthetics able to restore meaningful, object-level sight for the blind. The research, from the NeuroAI Lab of Martin ...

Three decades of psychological research show that our visual and auditory senses work together. Famously, an experiment by Robert Sekuler (1997) found that the presence or absence of a clicking sound ...

SmartBear, helping teams build, test, and ship quality software at AI speed and scale, today announced the first platform to unify property-based, OCR, and vision AI — expanding coverage, reducing ...

People with visual agnosia may be unable to recognize, draw, or recall how to use objects even with properly functioning eyesight. There are two sub-types of this condition. Less than 1% of people ...

When visual information enters the brain, it travels through two pathways that process different aspects of the input. For decades, scientists have hypothesized that one of these pathways, the ventral ...

New research examines the "code" used by the brain to categorize the objects we see and sheds light on a scientific debate: when, in the process of the brain analysis of visual stimulus, does "shape ...

A new study suggests that unusual visual inspection of objects may precede the development of the social symptoms that are characteristic of autism syndrome disorder. Unusual visual inspection of ...

When Plato set out to define what made a human a human, he settled on two primary characteristics: We do not have feathers, and we are bipedal (walking upright on two legs). Plato's characterization ...

For human beings, vision is the most important sensory system. Therefore our brains do more elaborate processing of visual information than for any other sensory modality. This is illustrated by the ...

Unusual visual inspection of objects by infants 9 months of age and older is predictive of a later diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a new UC Davis Health study has found. Unusual visual ...
