The 'Generative Model of 3D Face Identity' is able to reconstruct facial models using information stored in a person's brain when recalling the familiar face of another person. Read More
Adults who played Pokemon video games as children had preferential activation in the visual system for Pokemon character, researchers report. The finding shed light on the development of the visual system and categorization in the brain. Read More
New study finds visible teeth are key to identifying a face in a large group. Scientists have found new evidence... Read More
Using an AI technique called adversarial training, researchers have developed a new algorithm that dynamically disrupts facial recognition systems, which may help to maintain privacy. Read More
Researchers report on how certain activity in face cells can alter perception. Read More
Researchers report the amygdala may play a bigger role in facial recognition than previously thought. According to a new study, the amygdala responds more specifically to images of the face than the fusiform face area does. Read More
Researchers have measured the activity of neurons in one of the brain areas responsible for body recognition. Read More
Research sheds light on how damage to the amygdala affects facial recognition and gaze perception. Read More
Researchers report facial recognition varies by where they appear in the visual field, and this variability is reduces through learning familiar faces via social interactions. The study reports repeated social interactions tune visual neurons in the face processing network to enable consistent and rapid rapid recognition of familiar faces. Read More
Artificial intelligence systems that use emotional reading algorithms to evaluate facial expressions are not very good at lie detection. Read More
Could it be possible to judge a person's socioeconomic status by simply looking at their face? A new study revels that people can accurately assess whether a person is rich or poor, but only when the person displays a neutral face that is void of a smile or emotion. Read More
Study reveals both similarities and differences in how the left and right sides of the brain process semantic memory. Read More
