Connectivity Fingerprints: From Areal Descriptions to Abstract Spaces.

abstract：:Understanding the perception of all but the most impoverished and artificial scenes presents a different and probably far greater challenge from understanding face recognition, reading, or identification (or even categorization) of single objects. Central issues in the interpretation of structured objects and scenes a...
