Topic: face repetition

Repetition suppression (RS), the diminished neural response to repeated stimuli, is a well-documented phenomenon potentially explained by predictive coding. This theory suggests that the brain anticipates incoming information, minimizing further processing for familiar stimuli. For example, fusiform face area (FFA) consistently shows decreased neural response to repeated presentation of the same faces. According to the traditional model of visual processing, information progresses from the lower brain regions' superficial cortical layers to the higher areas' middle layers. Within this framewor
