A cortical area selective for visual processing of the human body

TL;DR: A series of functional magnetic resonance imaging studies revealing substantial evidence for a distinct cortical region in humans that responds selectively to images of the human body, as compared with a wide range of control stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance-optimized hierarchical models predict neural responses in higher visual cortex

TL;DR: This work uses computational techniques to identify a high-performing neural network model that matches human performance on challenging object categorization tasks and shows that performance optimization—applied in a biologically appropriate model class—can be used to build quantitative predictive models of neural processing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visual objects in context

TL;DR: Building on previous findings, the knowledge that is available is reviewed, specific mechanisms for the contextual facilitation of object recognition are proposed, and important open questions are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Top-down facilitation of visual recognition

TL;DR: The dynamics revealed provide strong support for the proposal of how top-down facilitation of object recognition is initiated, and are used to derive predictions for future research.
Journal ArticleDOI

Left ventrolateral prefrontal cortex and the cognitive control of memory.

TL;DR: Evidence supports a two-process model of mnemonic control, supported by a double dissociation among rostral regions of left VLPFC, that operates post-retrieval to resolve competition among active representations.

Distributed Hierarchical Processing in the Primate Cerebral Cortex

TL;DR: A summary of the layout of cortical areas associated with vision and with other modalities, a computerized database for storing and representing large amounts of information on connectivity patterns, and the application of these data to the analysis of hierarchical organization of the cerebral cortex are reported on.

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.

Recognition-by-Components: A Theory of Human Image Understanding.

TL;DR: Recognition-by-components (RBC) provides a principled account of the heretofore undecided relation between the classic principles of perceptual organization and pattern recognition.
