The inversion effect on the cubic humanness-uncanniness relation in humanlike agents

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
The uncanny valley describes the typically nonlinear relation between the esthetic appeal of artificial entities and their human likeness. The effect has been attributed to specialized (configural) processing that increases sensitivity to deviations from

Configurable Markov Decision Processes

open access: yesCoRR, 2018
In many real-world problems, there is the possibility to configure, to a limited extent, some environmental parameters to improve the performance of a learning agent. In this paper, we propose a novel framework, Configurable Markov Decision Processes (Conf-MDPs), to model this new type of interaction with the environment.

The effect of texture on face identification and configural information processing [PDF]

open access: yesPsihologija, 2014
Shape and texture are an integral part of face identity. In the present study, the importance of face texture for face identification and detection of configural manipulation (i.e., spatial relation among facial features) was examined by ...

Fluid Abilities and Rule Learning: Patterning and Biconditional Discriminations

open access: yesJournal of Intelligence, 2018
Previous experience with discrimination problems that can only be solved by learning about stimulus configurations enhances performance on new configural discriminations.

Three Months-Old’ Preferences for Biological Motion Configuration and Its Subsequent Decline

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
To perceive, identify and understand the action of others, it is essential to perceptually organize individual and local moving body parts (such as limbs) into the whole configuration of a human body in action.

Composite Face Effect Predicts Configural Encoding in Visual Short-Term Memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
In natural vision, visual scenes consist of individual items (e.g., trees) and global properties of items as a whole (e.g., forest). These different levels of representations can all contribute to perception, natural scene understanding, sensory memory ...

Configurational Forces in Penetration Processes

open access: yes, 2022
With a loose reference to problems of penetration in biomechanics (for instance, a nanoparticle penetrating through a cell's membrane or a cell sucked with a pipette), the role of configurational forces is investigated during the process in which a compliant intruder is inserted into an elastic structure.

A Configuration Taxonomy of Business Process Orientation

open access: yesBusiness & Information Systems Engineering, 2021
Organizations strive to develop a variety of capabilities to improve and measure business processes. Researchers have used various maturity models to investigate the development of a business process orientation (BPO), and most have argued that such a development comes in stages.

Early Deafness Increases the Face Inversion Effect and Does Not Modulate the Composite Face Effect

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2012
Early deprivation in audition can have striking effects on the development of visual processing. Here we investigated whether early deafness induces changes in holistic/configural face processing.

Formex Configuration Processing II

open access: yesInternational Journal of Space Structures, 2000
This is the second paper in a series of papers that are intended to provide a comprehensive coverage of the concepts of formex configuration processing and their applications in relation to structural configurations. In the present paper, attention is focused on the configuration processing for a number of families of space structures, namely ...
