A double dissociation of the acuity and crowding limits to letter identification, and the promise of improved visual screening by Song, Shuang, Levi, Dennis M, Pelli, Denis G

“…Here, we systematically explore the size and spacing requirements for identifying a letter among other letters. We measure acuity for flanked and unflanked…”

The Bouma law of crowding, revised: critical spacing is equal across parts, not objects by Rosen, Sarah, Chakravarthi, Ramakrishna, Pelli, Denis G

“…Crowding is the inability to identify an object among flankers in the periphery. It is due to inappropriate incorporation of features from flanking objects in…”

Are faces processed like words? A diagnostic test for recognition by parts by Martelli, Marialuisa, Majaj, Najib J, Pelli, Denis G

“…Do we identify an object as a whole or by its parts? This simple question has been surprisingly hard to answer. It has been suggested that faces are recognized…”

Seeing and hearing a word: combining eye and ear is more efficient than combining the parts of a word by Dubois, Matthieu, Poeppel, David, Pelli, Denis G

“…To understand why human sensitivity for complex objects is so low, we study how word identification combines eye and ear or parts of a word (features, letters,…”
