Abstract:
The key problem in object recognition is to understand how the visual system can recognize an object despite changes in its appearance. To address the issue of view-invariant object recognition, we conducted a series of behavioral and electrophysiological experiments. I’ll summarize the results from both humans and monkeys, and discuss the involvement of inferotemporal cortex.
