Visual object recognition is foundational to processes of categorization, tool use, and real-world problem solving. Despite considerable effort across many disciplines and many specific advances, ...

Ayzenberg and researchers from Emory University compared the visual perceptual abilities of preschoolers and state-of-the-art AI models and found that these children outperformed the best computer ...

Skeletal shapes key to rapid recognition of objects A new insight into the human vision system Date: August 20, 2019 Source: Emory Health Sciences Summary: In the blink of an eye, the human visual ...

On the whole, people recognize objects best when they see the objects from a familiar view and worse when they see the objects from views that were previously occluded from sight. Unexpectedly, we ...

As a result, performance on visual recognition tests that use images of common objects are a complex mixture of people's visual ability and their experience with these objects.

More specifically, the convergence of Object Recognition, Machine Vision, and Neural Networks enables machines to see and understand what it is they are seeing.
