What does bottom-up (data driven) processing entail?
Front
This entails taking individual sensory stimuli and combining them to create a cohesive image to determine what an object is (combines parallel processing and feature detection)
Back
This general guideline states that perceptual organization will always be as regular, symmetric, and simple as possible.
Front
Law of Pragnanz
Back
What is a benefit of top-down processing?
Front
This allows is to quickly recognize an object without needing to analyze the specific parts
Back
What do parvocellular cells detect?
Front
These cells detect a high color spatial resolution
i.e., fine details when examining an object
Back
Label the Gestalt principle:
When a space is enclosed by a contour, it tends to be perceived as a closed figure.
Front
Law of closure
Back
Label the Gestalt principle:
Objects grouped together seem to be perceived as a unit
Birds flying in the same direction are grouped to be a flock
Front
Law of proximity
Back
What would it be like if we only used top-down or bottom-up processing?
What is perceptual organization?
Front
Either very difficult to discriminate between objects or as if one was looking at an object for the first time.
Perceptual organization is the utilization of BOTH these processes together to gather information about an object.
Back
What do magnocellular cells detect?
Front
These cells detect motion of objects
Back
Label the Gestalt principle:
Perceiving contours and therefore shapes that are actually not present in the stimulus
I.e., white diamond seen in the outline of a black square with shapes around it
Front
Subjective countours
Back
A blur of a baseball whizzes by you.
Did this involve temporal or spatial resolution?
Front
Temporal, as it refers to the motion of the object with respect to time
Back
We perceive a white piece of paper as "white" no matter if it is in fluorescent, incandescent, or sunlight.
What term does this refer to?
Front
Constancy, or the idea we perceive certain characteristic of objects to remain the same
Back
What does top-down (conceptually driven) processing entail?
Front
This is driven by memories and expectations that allow the brain to recognize the entire object and then recognize components based on those expectations.
Back
Label the Gestalt principle:
Objects that appear to follow the same pathway are grouped together
Rows of parked cars are grouped rather than two cars facing each other every few feet
Front
Law of good continuation
Back
In general, what are the Gestalt principles?
Front
These are the ways for the brain to infer missing parts of a picture when a picture is incomplete.
Back
Label the Gestalt principle:
Objects that are similar tend to be grouped together
