How do we construct a description of physical reality based on sensory information? We survey basic facts, theories, and methods of studying perception. The course mainly focuses on visual perception and visual development. However, main discoveries done in the context of other other sensory modalities will be covered.
Representative topics include:
- texture perception
- colour processing
- face recognition
- context effects
- Visual illusions.
Papers to read for the course in will be uploaded and available to students on the e-learning page of the class.
