This topic has been studied in many animal species, and diversity in the underlying visual processing mechanisms has been revealed in several cases. The importance of diversity in these and other comparative cognitive studies is discussed.doi:10.1007/978-981-16-2028-7_1Tomokazu Ushitani...
2Related Work Efforts toward understanding the semantic meaning associated with free-form regions in images started with work on figure-ground segmentation, the objective of which is to identify the foreground pixels in typically object-centric images. Early methods [4,23,25,26,38] investigated ways...
Meaning and modality: influences of context, semantic memory organization, and perceptual predictability on picture processing. Using event-related potentials (), the authors investigated the influences of sentence context, semantic organization, and perceptual predictability on pic... KD Federmeier,M Kuta...
Also, the performance with illusory contours is almost as good as with real contours, meaning that the boundary completion process supplies shape information that is almost as precise as direct sensing of a luminance border. However, these results by themselves do not prove that it is illusory ...
Conceptual knowledge allows us to bring meaning to our world. Studies of semantic dementia (SD) patients and some functional neuroimaging studies indicate that the anterior temporal lobes, bilaterally, are a core neural substrate for the formation of conceptual representations. The majority of SD ...
These accounts embody three critical assumptions: semantic representations are amodal; the mapping between surface form and meaning varies for different modalities; and the representations are dynamic. The influence of these three factors was revealed in data collected over a 4‐year longitudinal period ...
(maybe a technical term one is not familiar with), the processing is quite shallow, simply because the concept network is small or even limited only to the linguistic label.10 At the other extreme, when reflecting very consciously on the meaning of a word, the resulting activated ...
