| How
do we construct a description of physical reality based on sensory
information? We survey basic facts, theories, and methods of studying
perception and cognition. The course mainly focuses on visual perception and
visual development. However, main discoveries done in the context of other
other cognitive functions will be covered. Representative topics
include the physiology of the eye and the brain, research methods, features
detection and integration, reading and face recognition, depth and motion
perception, object recognition deficits, language and memory development. |
