{ "pk": 27325, "title": "Categorical vs Coordinate Relationships do not reduce to spatial frequencydifferences", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Categorical and coordinate stimulus processing were hypoth-esized by Kosslyn (1987) to be lateralized visual tasks, dif-ferentiated by task-relevant spatial frequencies. Slotnick et al.(2001) directly tested Kosslyn’s hypothesis and concluded thatthe lateralization presents only when tasks are sufficiently dif-ficult. Our differential encoding model is a three layer neuralnetwork that accounts for lateralization in visual processingvia the biologically plausible mechanism of differences in con-nection spread of long-range lateral neural connections (Hsiao,Cipollini, & Cottrell, 2013). We show that our model accountsfor Slotnick’s data and that Slotnick’s analysis does not con-vincingly explain their results. Instead, we propose that Koss-lyn’s initial hypothesis was based on an incorrect assumption:categorical and coordinate stimuli are not solely differentiatedby spatial frequencies. The results that our model capturescannot be reproduced by Ivry and Robertson’s (1998) Dou-ble Filtering by Frequency theory, which is driven solely bylateralized spatial frequency processing.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Differential encoding; hemispheric asymmetry;spatial frequency processing; categorical vs. coordinate" } ], "section": "Posters: Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3rw2w5xb", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Vishaal", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Prasad", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, San Diego", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Ben", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Cipollini", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Classy.org", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Garrison", "middle_name": "W.", "last_name": "Cottrell", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, San Diego", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2017-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/27325/galley/16961/download/" } ] }
