  2. Visual short-term memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_short-term_memory

    The term VSTM refers in a theory-neutral manner to the non-permanent storage of visual information over an extended period of time. [1] The visuospatial sketchpad is a VSTM subcomponent within the theoretical model of working memory proposed by Alan Baddeley; in which it is argued that a working memory aids in mental tasks like planning and ...

  3. Object recognition (cognitive science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_recognition...

    This theory of recognition is based on a more holistic system rather than by parts, suggesting that objects are stored in memory with multiple viewpoints and angles. This form of recognition requires a lot of memory as each viewpoint must be stored. Accuracy of recognition also depends on how familiar the observed viewpoint of the object is. [14]

  4. Baddeley's model of working memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baddeley's_model_of_working...

    Baddeley's model of the phonological loop. The phonological loop (or articulatory loop) as a whole deals with sound or phonological information.It consists of two parts: a short-term phonological store with auditory memory traces that are subject to rapid decay and an articulatory rehearsal component (sometimes called the articulatory loop) that can revive the memory traces.

  5. Unitary theories of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitary_theories_of_memory

    In 1974, Baddeley and Hitch [5] introduced and made popular the multicomponent model of working memory.This theory proposes a central executive that, among other things, is responsible for directing attention to relevant information, suppressing irrelevant information and inappropriate actions, and for coordinating cognitive processes when more than one task must be done at the same time.

  6. Phase-change memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-change_memory

    Phase-change memory (also known as PCM, PCME, PRAM, PCRAM, OUM (ovonic unified memory) and C-RAM or CRAM (chalcogenide RAM)) is a type of non-volatile random-access memory. PRAMs exploit the unique behaviour of chalcogenide glass .

  7. Change blindness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change_blindness

    The laboratory study of change blindness began in the 1970s within the context of eye movement research. George McConkie conducted the first studies on change blindness involving changes in words and texts; in these studies, the changes were introduced while the observer performed a saccadic eye movement. Observers often failed to notice these ...

  8. Eidetic memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eidetic_memory

    Eidetic memory (/ aɪ ˈ d ɛ t ɪ k / eye-DET-ik), also known as photographic memory and total recall, is the ability to recall an image from memory with high precision—at least for a brief period of time—after seeing it only once [1] and without using a mnemonic device.

  9. Perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perception

    A mathematical theory of perception-in-action has been devised and investigated in many forms of controlled movement, and has been described in many different species of organism using the General Tau Theory. According to this theory, "tau information", or time-to-goal information is the fundamental percept in perception.
