Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial intelligence

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Developmental psychology, Perception and Event-related potential. His Cognitive psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Facial expression, Face, Emotional processing and Electroencephalography. He has included themes like Context, Social psychology, Punishment and Specialization in his Cognition study.

His study focuses on the intersection of Developmental psychology and fields such as Face perception with connections in the field of Face, Adult development and Social cognition. As a part of the same scientific family, Werner Sommer mostly works in the field of Perception, focusing on Speech recognition and, on occasion, P300 Components, Priming, Saccadic masking and Reading. His study in Event-related potential is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Single trial, Toolbox, Eeg data and Expectancy theory.

His most cited work include:

  • ERP correlates of error processing in spatial S-R compatibility tasks. (142 citations)
  • Residue iteration decomposition (RIDE): A new method to separate ERP components on the basis of latency variability in single trials. (114 citations)
  • Spatial Attention Related SEP Amplitude Modulations Covary with BOLD Signal in S1—A Simultaneous EEG—fMRI Study (110 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Werner Sommer mostly deals with Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Event-related potential, Communication and Developmental psychology. His Cognitive psychology study combines topics in areas such as Perception, Stimulus, Facial expression, N400 and Semantic memory. His Cognition research includes elements of Face, Face and Face perception.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Speech recognition and Priming in addition to Event-related potential. His research in Communication intersects with topics in Lateralized readiness potential and Response priming. His Lateralized readiness potential study incorporates themes from Electrophysiology and Contingent negative variation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (54.47%)
  • Cognition (32.52%)
  • Event-related potential (17.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Cognitive psychology (54.47%)
  • Cognition (32.52%)
  • Event-related potential (17.89%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Event-related potential, Electroencephalography and Facial expression. His Cognitive psychology research incorporates themes from Stimulus, N400, Perception and Gaze. The Cognition study combines topics in areas such as Structural equation modeling, Control, Exploratory factor analysis and Face perception.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Neurophysiology, Speech recognition, Lexicon and Priming. His research integrates issues of Resting state fMRI, Cognitive neuroscience, Artificial intelligence and Pattern recognition in his study of Electroencephalography. His Facial expression research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Emotion recognition, Developmental psychology, Prosocial behavior, Emotional expression and Disgust.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Exploiting the intra-subject latency variability from single-trial event-related potentials in the P3 time range: A review and comparative evaluation of methods. (65 citations)
  • How microsaccades relate to lateralized ERP components of spatial attention: A co-registration study (20 citations)
  • Functional connectivity in cognitive control networks mitigates the impact of white matter lesions in the elderly (18 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial intelligence

His primary areas of investigation include Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Event-related potential, Facial expression and Surprise. His Cognitive psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Electroencephalography, Stroop effect, Facilitation, Visual perception and Task analysis. Werner Sommer has included themes like Face and Perception, Face perception in his Cognition study.

His work deals with themes such as Neurophysiology, Speech recognition and Cognitive skill, which intersect with Event-related potential. His work carried out in the field of Facial expression brings together such families of science as Prosocial behavior and Emotional expression. His Surprise research focuses on P3a and how it relates to Valence.
