  3. Principles of grouping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_grouping

    The human brain uses similarity to distinguish between objects which might lie adjacent to or overlap with each other based upon their visual texture. Each farmer may use a unique planting style which distinguishes his field from another. Another example is a field of flowers which differ only by color. [citation needed]

  4. Figure–ground (perception) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figure–ground_(perception)

    The human visual system will settle on either of the interpretations of the Rubin vase and alternate between them, a phenomenon known as multistable perception. Functional brain imaging shows that, when people see the Rubin image as a face, there is activity in the temporal lobe, specifically in the face-selective region.

  5. Mental image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_image

    The right parietal cortex appears to be important in attention, visual inspection, and stabilization of mental representations. Thus, the neural substrates of visual imagery and perception overlap in areas beyond the visual cortex and the degree of this overlap in these areas correlates with the vividness of mental representations during imagery.

    For example, comparing attributes/skills (e.g., communication, analytical, IT skills) learnt across different university degrees (e.g., mathematics, economics, psychology) Venn diagram: Venn diagram: all possible logical relations between a finite collection of different sets.

  7. Visual processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_processing

    The visual system is organized hierarchically, with anatomical areas that have specialized functions in visual processing. Low-level visual processing is concerned with determining different types of contrast among images projected onto the retina whereas high-level visual processing refers to the cognitive processes that integrate information from a variety of sources into the visual ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphic_organizer

    A graphic organizer, also known as a knowledge map, concept map, story map, cognitive organizer, advance organizer, or concept diagram, is a pedagogical tool that uses visual symbols to express knowledge and concepts through relationships between them. [1]

  9. Form perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_perception

    Form perception is the recognition of visual elements of objects, specifically those to do with shapes, patterns and previously identified important characteristics. An object is perceived by the retina as a two-dimensional image, [1] but the image can vary for the same object in terms of the context with which it is viewed, the apparent size of the object, the angle from which it is viewed ...
