Why do we struggle to tell apart faces of other races? New #psynomBRM paper by Shoura @moazshoura.bsky.social , Walther & Nestor @adriannestor.bsky.social uses GAN-based “knockout faces” to reveal what info we miss. #FaceRecognition 👉
The case of the missing information: Reconstructed faces and hy the other race effect happens
Ever confuse two people you’ve met, particularly if they’re both of a different race than you are? It’s likely that part of why this is hard for you is the Other Race Effect, where we find people w…

Excited to share my 1st Bluesky post: 2 studies reveal age biases in other-race face perception using GAN reconstruction and EEG. Congratulations to @moazshoura.bsky.social for this research - in collaboration with @dirkbwalther.bsky.social |

Researchers harness brain activity to look at how we perceive faces from other racial groups differently
Researchers at U of T Scarborough have used brain activity and AI to reveal why we have a tough time recognizing facial details of people from other races.
