Time and numerosity estimation in peripersonal and extrapersonal space

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2021
The representation of space, time and number is believed to rely on a common encoding system developed to support action guidance. While the ecological advantage of such a shared system is evident when objects are located within the region of space we ...

A visual sense of number emerges from divisive normalization in a simple center-surround convolutional network

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Many species of animals exhibit an intuitive sense of number, suggesting a fundamental neural mechanism for representing numerosity in a visual scene.

Deprivation of Auditory Experience Influences Numerosity Discrimination, but Not Numerosity Estimation

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Number sense is the ability to estimate the number of items, and it is common to many species. Despite the numerous studies dedicated to unveiling how numerosity is processed in the human brain, to date, it is not clear whether the representation of ...

Stay tuned for more (or less): Neural selectivity and perception of numerosity and other quantities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In our daily lives, we have to process information about all kinds of quantities such as the set size of a group of items (i.e., numerosity), time and size, among others.

Visual sense of number vs. sense of magnitude in humans and machines

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Numerosity perception is thought to be foundational to mathematical learning, but its computational bases are strongly debated. Some investigators argue that humans are endowed with a specialized system supporting numerical representations; others argue ...

The symmetry-induced numerosity illusion depends on visual attention

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Symmetry is an important and strong cue we rely on to organize the visual world. Although it is at the basis of objects segmentation in a visual scene, it can sometimes bias our perception.

Effects of Attention on Numerosity Perception

open access: yes, 2021
This study will test whether attentional facilitation and impairment affect numerosity perception as predicted by a computational model. The model is based on the Occupancy Model, which was developed by Allik and Tuulmets (1991), and it assumes that a ...

Anisotropic representations of visual space modulate visual numerosity estimation.

open access: yes, 2022
Humans can estimate the number of visually displayed items without counting. This capacity of numerosity perception has often been attributed to a dedicated system to estimate numerosity, or alternatively to the exploitation of various stimulus features,

Autistic individuals show less grouping-induced bias in numerosity judgments

open access: yesFrontiers in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, 2023
IntroductionWhen items are connected together, they tend to be perceived as an integrated whole rather than as individual dots, causing a strong underestimation of the numerosity of the ensemble. Previous evidence on grouping-induced biases of numerosity

Numerosity Comparison, Estimation and Proportion Estimation Abilities May Predict Numeracy and Cognitive Reflection in Adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
This study explores whether and how different tasks associated with approximate number system (ANS) ability are related to numeracy and cognitive reflection in adults.
