Responses to real face and non-face images as a function of the number of correct contrast features. (a) Left to right: average face computed by averaging all face images in the data set; manual delineation of parts based on the average face; an instance of a face with the template overlaid; an instance of a non-face with the same template overlaid. (b) Examples of face and non-face images with indicated number of correct features (according to Sinha’s model). Last column (Avg) shows the result of averaging all images containing 12 correct features. (c) Single cell PSTH to 207 face and 204 non-face images, sorted by the number of correct contrast features in each stimulus. (d) Average firing rate of the example cell shown in (c), as a function of the number of correct features for faces (blue curve) and non-faces (red). Firing rate was averaged on the interval [50,250] ms without baseline subtraction. Shaded area denotes standard error of the mean. (e) Population normalized firing rate (baseline subtracted) to face and non-face images as a function of the number of correct contrast features.
