Understanding face recognition
Vicki Bruce,Andrew W. Young +1 more
TL;DR: A functional model is proposed in which structural encoding processes provide descriptions suitable for the analysis of facial speech, for analysis of expression and for face recognition units, and it is proposed that the cognitive system plays an active role in deciding whether or not the initial match is sufficiently close to indicate true recognition.

Brain organization for language from the perspective of electrical stimulation mapping
TL;DR: A model for the organization of language in the adult humans brain is derived from electrical stimulation mapping of several language-related functions: naming, reading, short-term verbal memory, mimicry of orofacial movements, and phoneme identification during neurosurgical operations under local anesthesia as mentioned in this paper.

Naming Speed and Reading: The Contribution of the Cognitive Neurosciences.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss how research in the developmental cognitive neurosciences can contribute to an understanding of the complex relations between various aspects of naming and reading processes and suggest the existence of a naming-rate deficit that differentiates dyslexic from average and garden-variety poor readers; this deficit appears to persist well into middle childhood.

Confrontation naming impairment in dementia
TL;DR: Results challenge the theory that misnamings of dementia patients result primarily from misperception and find most misnamments are found to be semantically related or semantically and visually related to the stimulus.

Semantic impairment and anomia in Alzheimer's disease
TL;DR: Semantic impairment was present in patients with normal ability to discriminate visually presented shapes, indicating that the semantic deficit in Alzheimer's disease occurs independently of abnormalities of visuospatial function.
