A longstanding controversy concerns the functional organization of high-level vision, and the
extent to which the recognition of different classes of visual stimuli engages a single system …

Developmental prosopagnosia (DP) refers to face recognition deficits in the absence of
brain damage. DP affects∼ 2% of the population, and it often runs in families. DP studies …

It is unknown if the white-matter properties associated with specific visual networks
selectively affect category-specific processing. In a novel protocol we combined …

A central goal in neuroscience is to understand how processing within the ventral visual
stream enables rapid and robust perception and recognition. Recent neuroscientific …

This article presents subjective rating norms for a new set of Stills And Videos of facial
Expressions—the SAVE database. Twenty nonprofessional models were filmed while …

Faces are arguably the most significant visual stimuli in children's social environment. Much
of children's adaptive social functioning relies on their success in extracting crucial …

People have an impressive ability to discriminate and recognize thousands of faces despite
their similarity as visual patterns. In this chapter I ask how this is possible, focusing on how …

Humans are highly efficient at recognising familiar faces. However, previous EEG/ERP
research has given a partial and fragmented account of the neural basis of this remarkable …

Overview of DP Although formal diagnostic criteria have not been agreed upon, DP is
typically diagnosed when an individual who complains of face recognition problems in daily …

The functional organization of the visual processing system effectively serves to solvedifficult
recognition and classification problems. Given a large amount of information, the …
