Shape-centered representations of bounded regions of space mediate the perception of objects

G Vannuscorps, A Galaburda… - Cognitive …, 2022 - Taylor & Francis
We report the study of a woman who perceives 2D bounded regions of space (“shapes”)
defined by sharp edges of medium to high contrast as if they were rotated by 90, 180 …

[HTML][HTML] The form of reference frames in vision: The case of intermediate shape-centered representations

G Vannuscorps, A Galaburda, A Caramazza - Neuropsychologia, 2021 - Elsevier
Although a great deal is known about the early sensory and the later, perceptual, stages of
visual processing, far less is known about the nature of intermediate representational units …

Emergence of perceptual Gestalts in the human visual cortex: the case of the configural-superiority effect

J Kubilius, J Wagemans… - Psychological …, 2011 - journals.sagepub.com
Many Gestalt phenomena have been described in terms of perception of a whole being not

Brain representation of object-centered space in monkeys and humans

CR Olson - Annual review of neuroscience, 2003 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Visuospatial cognition requires taking into account where things are relative to
each other and not just relative to the viewer. Consequently it would make sense for the …
