"The challenge is figuring out how exactly people perform this complex task, what the underlying neural mechanisms and perceptual and cognitive processes are that support it, and how we can predict and support the processes to mitigate failures," says Tad Brunye, a senior cognitive scientist at the Center for Applied Brain and Cognitive Sciences.
|
|
According to this argument, a false alarm (mistakenly perceiving a random, inanimate object—perhaps momentarily—as human) is less harmful than a miss (failing to notice another actual human in one's presence), thus, when faced with uncertainty, our perceptual systems are calibrated to be more likely than not to register an object as human.
