The way in which information about complex objects and faces is represented in visual cortex is controversial. One model posits that information is processed in modules, highly specialized for different categories of objects; an opposing model appeals to a distributed representation across a large network of visual areas. A recent paper uses a novel imaging technique to address this controversy.
复杂物体和面孔的信息在视觉皮层中的表征方式存在争议。一种模型假定信息在模块中进行处理，这些模块高度专门用于不同类别的物体；另一种相反的模型则主张通过一个大型视觉区域网络进行分布式表征。最近的一篇论文使用了一种新颖的成像技术来解决这一争议。
