Integrating Neural Systems for Visual Perception: The Role of Ventral Temporal Cortex VTC and Medial Temporal Cortex MTC in Rapid and Complex Object Recognition
Human and primate perception occurs across multiple timescales, with some visual attributes identified in under 200ms, supported by the ventral temporal cortex (VTC). However, more complex visual inferences, such as recognizing novel objects, require additional time and multiple glances. The high-acuity fovea and frequent gaze shifts help compose object representations. While much is understood about…
