Although recognizing a face is something most of us do every day without obvious effort, it is in fact an incredibly complex task. This research is an attempt to figure out how the human visual system accomplishes it. Face perception is an important human capacity that may involve a different kind of processing mechanism than does our perception of other visual objects, and which seems to have a network of brain areas specifically devoted to it.

虽然识别人脸是我们大多数人每天都在做的事情，没有明显的努力，但它实际上是一项非常复杂的任务。这项研究试图弄清楚人类视觉系统是如何实现这一点的。人脸感知是人类的一项重要能力，它可能涉及一种与我们对其他视觉对象的感知不同的处理机制，并且似乎有一个专门用于它的大脑区域网络。
