Visual adaptation and face perception

MA Webster, DIA MacLeod - … Transactions of the Royal …, 2011 - royalsocietypublishing.org

Adaptation and visual coding

MA Webster - Journal of vision, 2011 - jov.arvojournals.org
Visual coding is a highly dynamic process and continuously adapting to the current viewing
context. The perceptual changes that result from adaptation to recently viewed stimuli …

Where do spontaneous first impressions of faces come from?

H Over, R Cook - Cognition, 2018 - Elsevier
Humans spontaneously attribute a wide range of traits to strangers based solely on their
facial features. These first impressions are known to exert striking effects on our choices and …

[HTML][HTML] Evolving concepts of sensory adaptation

MA Webster - F1000 biology reports, 2012 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Sensory systems constantly adapt their responses to match the current environment. These
adjustments occur at many levels of the system and increasingly appear to calibrate even for …

Face aftereffects predict individual differences in face recognition ability

HW Dennett, E McKone, M Edwards… - Psychological …, 2012 - journals.sagepub.com
Face aftereffects are widely studied on the assumption that they provide a useful tool for
investigating face-space coding of identity. However, a long-standing issue concerns the …

Face recognition impairments despite normal holistic processing and face space coding: Evidence from a case of developmental prosopagnosia

T Susilo, E McKone, H Dennett, H Darke… - Cognitive …, 2010 - Taylor & Francis
Holistic processing and face space coding are widely considered primary perceptual
mechanisms behind good face recognition. Here, however, we present the case of SP, a …

Are high-level aftereffects perceptual?

KR Storrs - Frontiers in psychology, 2015 - frontiersin.org
Imagine an experiment in which you show someone pictures of a computer-generated face
displaying random expressions, ranging from happy, through neutral, to sad. You tell the …

Not just the norm: Exemplar-based models also predict face aftereffects

DA Ross, M Deroche, TJ Palmeri - Psychonomic bulletin & review, 2014 - Springer
The face recognition literature has considered two competing accounts of how faces are
represented within the visual system: Exemplar-based models assume that faces are …

[HTML][HTML] Enhanced attention amplifies face adaptation

G Rhodes, L Jeffery, E Evangelista, L Ewing, M Peters… - Vision research, 2011 - Elsevier
Perceptual adaptation not only produces striking perceptual aftereffects, but also enhances
coding efficiency and discrimination by calibrating coding mechanisms to prevailing inputs …

[HTML][HTML] Perceptual adaptation helps us identify faces

G Rhodes, TL Watson, L Jeffery, CWG Clifford - Vision research, 2010 - Elsevier
Adaptation is a fundamental property of perceptual processing. In low-level vision, it can
calibrate perception to current inputs, increasing coding efficiency and enhancing …
