Face and object recognition by 3D cortical representations

This thesis presents a novel integrated cortical architecture with significant emphasis on low-level attentional mechanisms—based on retinal nonstandard cells and pathways—that can group non-attentional, bottom-up features present in V1/V2 into “proto-object” shapes. These shapes are extracted at fi...
