Spatial processing by receptive fields is a core property of the visual system. However, it is
unknown how spatial processing in high-level regions contributes to recognition behavior …

Face perception is accomplished by face-selective neural processes, involving holistic
processing that enables highly efficient integration of facial features into a whole-face …

Humans' ability to recognize objects is remarkably robust across a variety of views unless
faces are presented upside-down. Whether this face inversion effect (FIE) results from …

Viewpoint-invariant face recognition is thought to be subserved by a distributed network of
occipitotemporal face-selective areas that, except for the human anterior temporal lobe …

Face-processing occurs across ventral and lateral visual streams, which are involved in
static and dynamic face perception, respectively. However, the nature of spatial …

Humans recognize faces and objects with high speed and accuracy regardless of their
orientation. Recent studies have proposed that orientation invariance in face recognition …

Recent evidence suggests that the Fusiform Face Area (FFA) is not exclusively dedicated to
the interactive processing of face features, but also contains neurons sensitive to local …

The specificity of face perception is thought to reside both in its dramatic vulnerability to
picture-plane inversion and its strong reliance on horizontally oriented image content. Here …

The human ventral visual stream contains regions that respond selectively to faces over
objects. However, it is unknown whether responses in these regions correlate with how face …

Face recognition is more strongly impaired by stimulus inversion than nonface object
recognition. This phenomenon, known as the face inversion effect (FIE), suggests that the …
