1. Face Recognition in the Brain Arash Afraz

7. How Does the Brain Represent FACE???

8. Electrophysiological Studies Imaging Studies Behavioral Studies

9. Electro -physiological Studies:

10. Face selective neurons in the temporal cortex of monkey were reported in 1972.

18. TE  Face Identity STS  Facial Expression

20. Neural Encoding!?!?

22. Global Categories: Monkey, Human & Shape. Fine Categories: Monkey Identity (F1), Monkey Expression (F2), Human Identity (F3) & Human Expression (F4)

26. I See a face – a happy face!

27. Latency Coding in Face neurons?

28. Imaging Studies:

29. Fusiform Face Area Imaging studies (Nancy Kanwisher).

36. Face neurons are clustered in ventral visual pathway in few patches (say 5 or 6) Amount and distribution of face selective patches are similar in humans and monkeys

37. Optical Imaging investigations convey the same results.

38. Behavioral Studies:

39. Face Inversion Effects

43. Laterality in Perceiving Facial Expression

44. Prosopagnosia

46. Adaptation and After-effects in Face Perception!?

49. Simple Adaptations

50. What about high level visual stimuli like faces?

51. Morphing: Computerized Controlled Distortion of Faces

55. Effect of inversion:

56. Effect of translation:

57. A simple experiment!

58. Adaptation

59. Test!

60. Adaptation

61. Test!

62. A simple experiment!

63. Use of adaptation paradigms in investigating higher level questions Face adaptation is reduced by binocular suppression. Farshad Moradi, Christof Koch, Shinsuke Shimojo

64. New Prospects: Face as a dynamic visual stimulus

65. Facial mimic and Facial Motion
