2008 - Troland Research Awards, United States National Academy of Sciences For seminal experiments on the role of visual expertise in the recognition of complex objects including faces and for exploration of brain areas activated by this recognition.
Her main research concerns Cognitive psychology, Perception, Communication, Face perception and Cognitive neuroscience of visual object recognition. Her Cognitive psychology research includes elements of Face, Face, Fusiform gyrus and Fusiform face area. Her Perception research incorporates elements of Facial recognition system, Cognitive science, Neuropsychology and Information processing.
Her study in Communication is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Object, Artificial intelligence, Form perception, Scalp and Neuroscience. Her Face perception study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Context, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Task and Asperger syndrome. The Cognitive neuroscience of visual object recognition study combines topics in areas such as Short-term memory and Brain activity and meditation.
Isabel Gauthier mainly focuses on Cognitive psychology, Perception, Cognitive neuroscience of visual object recognition, Artificial intelligence and Communication. She has researched Cognitive psychology in several fields, including Social psychology, Face perception, Task, Cognition and Visual perception. Face perception is closely attributed to Face in her research.
She focuses mostly in the field of Perception, narrowing it down to topics relating to Categorization and, in certain cases, Concept learning. The various areas that she examines in her Cognitive neuroscience of visual object recognition study include Facial recognition system, Form perception, Mental rotation and Contrast. Her Communication research integrates issues from Stimulus and Object.
Her primary areas of investigation include Cognitive neuroscience of visual object recognition, Cognitive psychology, Artificial intelligence, Facial recognition system and Perception. Her research investigates the link between Cognitive neuroscience of visual object recognition and topics such as Speech recognition that cross with problems in Bayesian statistics and Face identity. Her Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Selective attention, Object, Face and Association.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Social psychology, Task and Visual learning. Her work focuses on many connections between Facial recognition system and other disciplines, such as Thick cortex, that overlap with her field of interest in Anatomy. Her Perception research includes themes of Cognitive science and Medical imaging.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cognitive neuroscience of visual object recognition, Cognitive psychology, Face, Facial recognition system and Variance. The study incorporates disciplines such as Dissociation, Speech recognition, Selective attention and Face perception in addition to Cognitive neuroscience of visual object recognition. In most of her Cognitive psychology studies, her work intersects topics such as Association.
Her Face research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Memory test, Machine learning and Task. Her Facial recognition system research includes themes of Developmental psychology and Social psychology. The various areas that Isabel Gauthier examines in her Artificial intelligence study include Relevance, Experimental psychology and Perception.
