Abstract Our brains are limited capacity information processing systems, whose performance can be modulated by different environmental factors. In this talk, I will present research examining how different external environments; such as more natural environments, can affect cognitive and affective processing. Using computer vision algorithms we find that perceiving higher curved-edge structure in natural scenes […]
