The main question in vision study is how the cortex integrates local visual cues to form global representations along the object-processing visual hierarchy.

A long-standing paradox in vision shows that the complexity of neural encoding increases along the visual hierarchy even as visual resolution dramatically decreases. Put differently, how do people ...

How that visual "clutter" affects visual processing in the brain, however, is not well understood.

"What we see emerges later in the processing hierarchy, in the frontal areas of the brain that are not usually associated with visual processing." ...

Thanks to these connectome-based models, scientists were able to reproduce the temporal processing hierarchy observed in the human brain.

Visual hierarchy is the difference between a site that strategically influences user flow and decisions, and a site that just “looks nice.” An interface’s visual hierarchy relies on the same ...

New study shows the post-rhinal cortex, appears to obtain visual data directly from an evolutionarily ancient sensory processing center at the base of the brain called the superior colliculus.

These distinct responses revealed an anatomical hierarchy, which they mapped into early sensory processing stages in the superior temporal gyrus and occipital cortex.
