V, a multimodal model that has introduced native visual function calling to bypass text conversion in agentic workflows.

A viral optical illusion featuring overlapping leaves hides the number “47,” which most people miss at first glance. The ...

The way your brain interprets this illusion may reveal whether you think outside the box or stick to the safe and familiar.

Perceptual video coding is an advanced compression strategy that exploits the characteristics of the human visual system to reduce data rates while preserving perceived video quality. By incorporating ...

Perceptual learning and visual cognition constitute an interdisciplinary field that investigates the brain’s remarkable capacity to refine visual processing through experience. By examining how ...

New artificial intelligence-generated images that appear to be one thing, but something else entirely when rotated, are helping scientists test the human mind. The work by Johns Hopkins University ...

For a translator to turn one language (say, English) into another (say, Greek), she has to be able to understand both languages and what common meanings they point to, because English is not very ...

Past research has suggested that people's cultural differences may result in differences in basic visual perception. New research found no evidence that these differences play a significant role in ...

A research group led by Prof. Zhang Peng from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed how the human brain resolves perceptual conflicts and generates conscious ...

Whether we’re staring at our phones, the page of a book, or the person across the table, the objects of our focus never stand in isolation; there are always other objects or people in our field of ...
