The functional architecture of the ventral temporal cortex and its role in categorization
K Grill-Spector, KS Weiner - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2014 - nature.com
Visual categorization is thought to occur in the human ventral temporal cortex (VTC), but
how this categorization is achieved is still largely unknown. In this Review, we consider the …
