Dynamics, not kinematics, is an adequate basis for perception
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 24 (4):709-710 (2001)
| Abstract | Roger Shepard's description of an abstract representational space defined by landmark objects and kinematic transformations between them fails to successfully capture the essence of the perceptual tasks he expects of it, such as object recognition. Ultimately, objects are recognized in the context of events. The dynamic nature of events is what determines the perceived kinematic behavior, and it is at the level of dynamics that events can be classified as types. [Shepard]. | |||||||||
