Perception is so complex that still we cannot give computers more than a fraction of the human ability to perceive things. Experiments with humans can unravel the computations that underlie human abilities. Here we focus on distinguishing between perceptual mechanisms that analyze information from only patches of the visual world and those that combine information from across the visual field as an object moves across it. Results should also help to understand the general issue of how the brain combines information from different groups of neurons. Australian understanding of brains should be advanced, benefiting neuroscience, medicine, and eventually computer science.

感知是如此复杂，以至于我们仍然不能赋予计算机超过人类感知事物能力的一小部分。用人类做实验可以解开人类能力背后的计算。在这里，我们着重区分两种感知机制，一种是只分析来自视觉世界的小块信息，另一种是当物体在视野中移动时，将来自整个视野的信息联合收割机结合起来。研究结果也有助于理解大脑如何结合来自不同神经元群的信息这一普遍问题。澳大利亚对大脑的理解应该是先进的，有利于神经科学，医学，并最终计算机科学。
