  2. Picture superiority effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_superiority_effect

    Allan Paivio's dual-coding theory is a basis of picture superiority effect. Paivio claims that pictures have advantages over words with regards to coding and retrieval of stored memory because pictures are coded more easily and can be retrieved from symbolic mode, while the dual coding process using words is more difficult for both coding and retrieval.

  3. Dual-coding theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-coding_theory

    If associations between a word and an image cannot be formed, it is much harder to remember and recall the word at a later point in time. While this limits the effectiveness of the dual-coding theory, it is still valid over a wide range of circumstances and can be used to improve memory.

  4. Serial memory processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_memory_processing

    Primacy and recency effects. In serial memory processing, Primacy effect and recency effect effects for accuracy of recall are commonly found. These effects are found for both visual [4] and auditory [5] stimuli in memory tasks. This means that of the many items in a memory set during serial memory processing, the first item and the last seem ...

  5. List of cognitive biases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cognitive_biases

    Where an item at the beginning of a list is more easily recalled. A form of serial position effect. See also recency effect and suffix effect. Processing difficulty effect: That information that takes longer to read and is thought about more (processed with more difficulty) is more easily remembered. [175] See also levels-of-processing effect.

  6. Digital image processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_image_processing

    The purpose of early image processing was to improve the quality of the image. It was aimed for human beings to improve the visual effect of people. In image processing, the input is a low-quality image, and the output is an image with improved quality. Common image processing include image enhancement, restoration, encoding, and compression.

  7. Ringing artifacts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringing_artifacts

    In signal processing, particularly digital image processing, ringing artifacts are artifacts that appear as spurious signals near sharp transitions in a signal. Visually, they appear as bands or "ghosts" near edges; audibly, they appear as "echos" near transients , particularly sounds from percussion instruments ; most noticeable are the pre ...

  8. Comparison gallery of image scaling algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_gallery_of...

    The resulting image is larger than the original, and preserves all the original detail, but has (possibly undesirable) jaggedness. The diagonal lines of the "W", for example, now show the "stairway" shape characteristic of nearest-neighbor interpolation. Other scaling methods below are better at preserving smooth contours in the image.

  9. Face superiority effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_superiority_effect

    In psychology, the face superiority effect refers to the phenomena of how all individuals perceive and encode other human faces in memory. Rather than perceiving and encoding single features of a face (nose, eyes, mouth, etc.), we perceive and encode a human face as one holistic unified element. [ 1 ]
