To understand how environmental cues help us both segment objects and infer distance and depth;
To articulate the conceptual difference between bottom-up and top- down theories of perceptual processing, and to illustrate this distinction using multiple theories and/or examples, as appropriate;
To describe the difference between feature analysis and configurational analysis systems;
To understand and describe the role of the ventral stream of processing in object recognition using multiple pieces of evidence;
To apply the concepts from perception and object recognition to other cognitive functions (e.g., attention);
To critically consider a range of assessment strategy tools to that may be useful in this (and other) courses.

BOTTOM-UP PROCESSING
Gibson’s theory of direct perception The environment supplies us with all that we need for perception
Sufficient context to make most perceptual decisions Relative to the laboratory approach

Usage of texture gradient, interposition
Bottom-up theories
Template theory
Highly detailed representation that must be matched perfectly for perception Issues of size, orientation and non-standard presentation (feasibility)

Feature analysis theories
Rather than recognizing an object by matching it as a whole, feature analysis theories propose that identifying a combination of features is used for perceptual recognition
Bottom-up theories Bottom-up theories
Pandemonium model (Selfridge, 1959)

Bottom-up theories Bottom-up theories
Pattern recognition model (McClelland & Rumelhart, 1981) Use of parallel distributed processing to model feature analysis theories of text, words

Recognition by components (RBC) (Biederman, 1987)
Objects consist of 3-D pieces that he calls “geons”
Insensitive to object orientation but sensitive to geon visibility Recognizing particular objects/instances
Biederman (1987), Psychol Rev, 94(2), 115-47
Bottom-up theories
Constructive perception
The perceiver builds a perception of a stimulus informed by cognitive processes
The world affects our perception, but also the world we experience is formed by our perception
