A dozen studies developed from invited presentations at a meeting of the Society for Mathematical Psychology at Indiana University in the summer of 1997 present rigorous inquiries in hopes that researchers in a range of disciplines will receive them critically. The topics include infinite dimensional Riemannian face spaces and other aspects of face perception, formal models of familiarity and memorability in face recognition, an information processing perspective, the role of category-specific processes in viewpoint generalization, and what can be learned from computational models operating on two-dimensional representations of faces.

Within the last three decades, interest in the psychological experience of human faces has drawn together cognitive science researchers from diverse backgrounds. Computer scientists talk to neural scientists who draw on the work of mathematicians who explicitly influence those conducting behavioral experiments.

The chapters in this volume illustrate the breadth of the research on facial perception and memory, with the emphasis being on mathematical and computational approaches. In pulling together these chapters, the editors sought to do much more than illustrate breadth. They endeavored as well to illustrate the synergies and tensions that inevitably result from adopting a broad view, one consistent with the emerging discipline of cognitive science.

Arvustused

"The editors of this volume are to be congratulated for organizing an excellent collection of 12 papers on facial cognition....This volume is a must-read book for researchers who are interested in facial information processing." Journal of Mathematics Psychology

"...contains a wealth of valuable information, and certainly belongs on the bookshelf of any serious student of face recognition in particular and facial cognition in general....the books's main strength, which is considerable, is that among them, its chapters describe the major cutting edge quantitative theories of a wide range of face-processing capabilities: face recognition, face discrimination, expression recognition, morphs, caricatures--you name it, it's discussed somewhere in the book." Contemporary Psychology
