Summary: This paper presents a critical points based descriptor for 3 D objects recognition, utilizing a size function to represent critical points and the links between them, and a metric learning method to deal with partial matching problems. Experimental results show that the proposed method performs well in 3 D object recognition.

Summary: Poor visual acuity in newborns may have functional advantages, allowing for faster and more accurate learning of basic-level visual object categories, which can also transfer to subordinate-level category learning.

Summary: Recognition and categorization of individual objects is a complex computational task, but visual systems can perform it rapidly and accurately. Archerfish, a species that hunts by shooting water at aerial targets, has the ability to recognize natural objects and categorize them into relevant classes. They can also recognize individual objects under different conditions. A computational model based on object features and a machine learning classifier reveals that a small number of features and object contours play a key role in object categorization. Behavioral experiments validate these findings.

Summary: This study aimed to explain why some individuals are more successful in learning the sounds of a second language by examining the role of attention in perceptual learning. A group of 57 monolingual English-speaking adults completed a perceptual learning task involving the voicing contrast between Thai /b/ and /p/. Results showed that attentional control was correlated with the ability to learn non-native phoneme contrasts regardless of instruction. Moreover, individuals with high attentional control performed better when given explicit instruction prior to training.

Summary: The present study examined adults' strategies of spatial scaling from memory in visual, haptic, and visuo-haptic conditions. The findings suggest that adults consistently employ mental transformation strategies for spatial scaling, regardless of perceptual modality and scaling direction.

Summary: This study tested the space-centered theory by investigating the temporal dynamics of spatial and semantic perception in scene perception. The results challenge the traditional 'bottom-up' views by suggesting that humans depend more on semantic information rather than spatial layout to discriminate spatial structure categories.

Summary: The study proposes a method for object recognition using topologically persistent features, which outperforms traditional models in recognition performance in unseen environments. Additionally, the proposed method shows relatively stable performance across different environments, while object detection methods exhibit a significant drop in performance.

Summary: This paper investigates the performance of different color descriptors under illumination variation, with the findings that color moment invariants provide the optimal balance between performance and dimensions, and color descriptors derived from physical reflectance models are more suitable for object recognition and image retrieval.

Summary: By comparing infants to computational models, this study sheds light on the origins and mechanisms underlying shape representations. The findings suggest that infants can form robust shape representations based on the skeletal structure when faced with variations in objects.

Summary: In this work, we proposed an improving method that enables imaging through scattering medium under strong background illumination. Our method retrieves the feature and spatial information of the target from a single shot of the camera image without complicated phase-retrieval algorithm. Additionally, our method provides an efficient solution for scattering imaging of wide-spectrum targets, with color information displayed in the multispectral image of the final result.

Summary: The authors establish a unified theory of projective crystal symmetries with time-reversal invariance and construct models for all 458 projective symmetry algebras for the 17 two-dimensional wallpaper groups. They discover three physical signatures resulting from projective symmetry algebras, including the shift of high-symmetry momenta, an enforced nontrivial Zak phase, and a spinless eight-fold nodal point. This work offers a theoretical foundation for the field of artificial crystals and opens the door to a wealth of topological states and phenomena beyond the existing paradigms.

Summary: The paper introduces a discriminative semantic region selection method for fine-grained recognition (DSRS), which selects image regions and predicts their semantic correlations with classes using pre-trained DCNN models. The joint representations are used for classifier training, and experiments demonstrate the superiority of the method.

Summary: The study suggests that pure alexia and prosopagnosia may involve complementary deficits in instantiation and abstraction during perceptual classification. This explanation is in line with previous distinctions between a predominantly left-hemispheric, abstract-category subsystem and a predominantly right-hemispheric, specific-exemplar subsystem underlying object recognition.

Summary: Facial disfigurements can influence how observers interact with a person, but do not lead to avoidance responses in covert attention. However, they do have an impact on the holistic processing of facial information.
