A two-stage model of category construction
… of a family resemblance (FR) principle. However, Medin, Wattenmaker, and Hampson (1987) have shown that people do not create categories according to the FR principle in free sorting tasks, given exemplars consisting of independent dimensions. A two-stage model of category construction is presented …

Learning-based Methods for Occluder-aided Non-Line-of-Sight Imaging
Imaging scenes that are not in our direct line-of-sight, referred to as non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging, has recently gained considerable attention from the computational imaging community. With a diverse set of potential applications in several domains, NLOS imaging is an emerging topic with many …

Attention, Context and the Inverse Base Rate Effect
The Inverse Base Rate Effect (IBRE; Medin & Edelson, 1988) is a non-rational behavioural phenomenon reported within the learning literature. A considerable amount of research has investigated the effect, as well as other effects that occur in onjunction with it. The EXIT model (Kruschke, 2001a) is …
