Sep 30, 2024 · At its core, visual intelligence is our capacity to perceive, analyze, and interpret visual information. It’s not just about having good eyesight; it’s about how our brains process and make sense of what we see.

Sep 30, 2024 · The relationship between visual perception and intelligence is like a complex dance, with each partner influencing and supporting the other. Our visual skills inform how we understand and interact with the world, while our cognitive abilities shape how …

This unit explores these questions from the perspectives of perception and cognition, brain imaging, and the engineering of intelligent systems. From very rudimentary visual abilities present at birth, infants learn to recognize complex objects such as hands and how to detect the direction of gaze of a caregiver.

Sep 14, 2024 · Visual perception is the brain’s ability to interpret and make sense of the visual information we receive through our eyes. It’s not just about seeing; it’s about understanding what we see. This process is a crucial component of cognitive and perceptual psychology , influencing how we interact with our environment, make decisions, and ...

For the reader of popular science, Visual Intelligence explains why your brain devotes billions of its valuable neurons and trillions of its valuable synapses to vision, why each of your eyes contains within it more computing power than the fastest supercomputers made today, why you can buy a chess machine that beats a Master but can't yet buy ...

How does intelligent behavior emerge from neural activity in the brain? How can the analysis of computational models help us understand the underlying neural processing, and vice versa? This unit explores these questions for vision, focusing on the function of the ventral visual stream in the brains of humans and monkeys. Videos

Visual information, forming a large part of the sensory information, is fed into the human brain to formulate various types of cognition and behaviours that make humans become intelligent agents. Recent advances have led to the development of brain-inspired algorithms and models for …

The visual cortex is one of the most-studied parts of the mammalian brain, and it is here that the elementary building blocks of our vision – detection of contrast, colour and movement – are combined to produce our rich and complete visual perception.

This book presents the latest findings in the field of brain-inspired intelligence and visual perception (BIVP). It introduces the theory and algorithms of BIVP step by step, such as pheromone accumulation, neural cognitive computing mechanisms, and brain-inspired perception, motion and control.

The Vision and Language research thrust will focus on what vision can deliver and how, and the Social Intelligence research thrust will focus on how representations of social knowledge incorporate visual information to make social inferences.
