Document Summary

Here is an updated list of topics likely to occur on the final exam. Not every topic on the exam is necessarily covered here; not every topic covered here will necessarily be on the exam. Track the subsequent processing of visual information in the brain: describe a typical visual receptive field of a retinal neuron. How does it function: describe different visual pathways known as the dorsal and the ventral stream. What does marr add to her findings: marr distinguishes a series of visual representations, the primal sketch, the 2. 5d sketch, and the 3d sketch. Explain these and how they related to his three levels of explanation. (6 points: define modularity. Give a flow chart for the neurological model, and state what brain areas are involved in the cognitive model: describe an artificial neuron. How can a neuron (or an artificial neuron) be a boolean function: what is the turing test for intelligence.
