Spatiotemporal changes in neural response patterns to faces varying in visual familiarity

TLDR
A first look is provided at the perceptual and neural correlates underlying experience gains with faces as they become familiar, indicating the potential for a rapid assessment of the "known versus unknown" status of faces in core face-selective regions of the brain.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
The Functional Neuroanatomy of Human Face Perception
TL;DR: This review describes recent neuroimaging findings regarding the macro- and microscopic anatomical features of the ventral face network, the characteristics of white matter connections, and basic computations performed by population receptive fields within face-selective regions composing this network.
Journal ArticleDOI
How face perception unfolds over time.
TL;DR: This article used magnetoencephalography (MEG) to measure the time course of neural responses to faces, and found that facial gender and age information emerged before identity information, suggesting a coarse-to-fine processing of face dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familiarity matters: A review on prioritized processing of personally familiar faces
Meike Ramon,Maria Ida Gobbini +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesize the existing literature investigating personally familiar face processing and highlight the remarkable, enhanced processing efficiency resulting from real-life experiece, using real-world examples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two areas for familiar face recognition in the primate brain
TL;DR: It is found that personally familiar faces engage the macaque face-processing network more than unfamiliar faces, and two temporal lobe areas extend the core face- processing network into a familiar face-recognition system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural microgenesis of personally familiar face recognition
TL;DR: This work isolated the discriminative neural responses to unfamiliar and familiar faces by slowly increasing visual information to progressively reveal faces of unfamiliar or personally familiar individuals and suggests that following detailed analysis of individual faces in core posterior areas of the face-processing network, familiar face recognition emerges categorically in medial temporal and anterior regions of the extended cortex.

Automated Anatomical Labeling of Activations in SPM Using a Macroscopic Anatomical Parcellation of the MNI MRI Single-Subject Brain
Nathalie Tzourio-Mazoyer,B. Landeau,D. Papathanassiou,Fabrice Crivello,Octave Etard,Nicolas Delcroix,Bernard Mazoyer,Marc Joliot +7 more
TL;DR: An anatomical parcellation of the spatially normalized single-subject high-resolution T1 volume provided by the Montreal Neurological Institute was performed and it is believed that this tool is an improvement for the macroscopical labeling of activated area compared to labeling assessed using the Talairach atlas brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Fusiform Face Area: A Module in Human Extrastriate Cortex Specialized for Face Perception
TL;DR: The data allow us to reject alternative accounts of the function of the fusiform face area (area “FF”) that appeal to visual attention, subordinate-level classification, or general processing of any animate or human forms, demonstrating that this region is selectively involved in the perception of faces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beyond mind-reading: multi-voxel pattern analysis of fMRI data
TL;DR: How researchers are using multi-voxel pattern analysis methods to characterize neural coding and information processing in domains ranging from visual perception to memory search is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional neuroanatomy of face and object processing. A positron emission tomography study
TL;DR: The results provide the first empirical evidence from normal subjects regarding the crucial role of the ventro-medial region of the right hemisphere in face recognition, and they offer new information about the dissociation between face and object processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural systems for recognition of familiar faces.
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the "theory of mind" areas, that have been implicated in social and cognitive functions other than face perception, play an essential role in the spontaneous activation of person knowledge associated with the recognition of familiar individuals.
