The Role of Experience in the Organization and Refinement of Face Space
Adults code faces in reference to category-specific norms that represent the different face categories encountered in the environment (e.g., race, age). Reliance on such norm-based coding appears to aid recognition, but few studies have examined the development of separable prototypes and the way …

The development of norm-based coding and category-specific face prototypes : an examination of 5- and 8-year-olds' face space
… organization and refmement of young children's face space. Past research has demonstrated that adults encode individual faces in reference to a distinct face prototype that represents the average of all faces ever encountered. The prototype is not a static abstracted norm but rather a malleable …

Mathematical Models of the Representation of Faces in Humans
The representation of faces is a crucial function of the human CNS, as demonstrated by the severe social difficulties experienced when people lack this ability (prosopagnosia). However, the precise way in which faces are represented and differentiated from one another is not well understood. This …

Facial hacking: the twisted logic of electro-facial choreography
… exploration of the external controlled human face with the aim to identify fundamental electro-facial choreographic patterns. Rewiring the human face to an external digital control system, has sparked a radical new way of thinking about the human facial display. Radical, as facial movement is …

Towards a unified account of face (and maybe object) processing
Faces are an important class of visual stimuli, and are thought to be processed differently from objects by the human visual system. Going beyond the false dichotomy of same versus different processing, it is more important to understand how exactly faces are processed similarly or differently from …

Looking for a Simplicity Principle in the Perception of Human Walking Motion
… of a norm-based multidimensional object space – a type of model for high level perceptual schemes that has received attention in the literature over the past two decades. Representation length is quantified as number of retained PC’s, with error increasing with discarded PC’s. We …
