Abstract:
Our knowledge of object and scene recognition is largely based on studies that have used static stimuli. However, in reality, motion and change are fundamental aspects of our world. Do our perceptual/cognitive systems make use of these real world dynamics? The purpose of this symposium
is to showcase a number of research projects that have begun to explore the impact that characteristic motion might have on our internal representations of the world. After a brief review of related psychological and physiological studies, this talk will highlight some of the general themes which link the current presentations and will conclude with suggestions for future research directions in the area of dynamic objects and events.
