Face Recognition and Processing in a Mini Brain

Abstract

This report covers a 1 year project which evaluated the specific mechanisms that a miniature brain containing less than 1 million neurons "in animal model of the honeybee" uses to learn and subsequently recognize human faces. There were four specific aims "detailed below" to the project, and all of these have been met. The bee brain shows some similarities to newborn human infants in the way in which faces are learnt, and bees appear to bind available information into a configural representation of a face.
