The influence of categories on perception: explaining the perceptual magnet effect as optimal statistical inference.

NH Feldman, TL Griffiths, JL Morgan - Psychological review, 2009 - psycnet.apa.org
A variety of studies have demonstrated that organizing stimuli into categories can affect the
way the stimuli are perceived. We explore the influence of categories on perception through …
