| Description |
In cognitive models, a complex task such as face recognition is often depicted as a series of stages. The Bruce and Young model is typical. Visual processing generates a face percept. This percept is matched to ""face recognition units,"" a memory store of previously encountered faces. A successful match activates person-identity nodes that contain names and biographical data, nodes that can also be accessed through other perceptual routes, such as voice or gait analysis. |
