RESEARCH PROJECTS
2009 – Present: Object and face perception, Motion
perception (e.g. self motion and navigation), Psychophysics and
computational modeling, Visual adaptation, Visual auditory interaction,
Memory and learning, Electrophysiology, EEG, Division of Psychology, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
2007 – 2009: Study human visual
perception by psychophysical experiments and computational modeling. Department of Neuroscience, Columbia
University.
1) How does the spatial distribution of simple features in caricature
faces affect our perception?
2) Study curve adaptation aftereffect on facial expression judgment
3) Spatial distribution and temporal resolution of low-level curvature
aftereffect and high-level facial expression aftereffect
