The role of exploratory action in face encoding (2006)
Journal Article
Liu, C., & Ward, J. (2006). The role of exploratory action in face encoding. Perception, 35(ECVP Abstract Supplement), 212 - 212

Research on face recognition has mainly relied on methods where observers are relatively passive viewers of face stimuli. We investigated whether active exploration of 3-D face stimuli could facilitate recognition performance. A yoked design was empl... Read More about The role of exploratory action in face encoding.

Transfer between two- and three-dimensional representations of faces (2006)
Journal Article
Liu, C. H., Ward, J., & Young, A. W. (2006). Transfer between two- and three-dimensional representations of faces. Visual Cognition, 13(1), 51-64. https://doi.org/10.1080/13506280500143391

Because stereoscopic depth cues are not present in an ordinary photograph, matching a two-dimensional (2-D) photograph to a three-dimensional (3-D) face requires establishing a correspondence between information derived from monocular depth cues and...

Face recognition in pictures is affected by perspective transformation but not by the centre of projection (2006)
Journal Article
Liu, C. H., & Ward, J. (2006). Face recognition in pictures is affected by perspective transformation but not by the centre of projection. Perception, 35(12), 1637-1650. https://doi.org/10.1068/p5545

Recognition of unfamiliar faces is susceptible to image differences caused by angular sizes subtended from the face to the camera. Research on perception of cubes suggests that apparent distortions of a shape due to large camera angle are correctable...

Virtual reality based tools in oncology teaching (2006)
Journal Article
Beavis, A., Bridge, P., Appleyard, R., Phillips, R., & Ward, J. (2006). Virtual reality based tools in oncology teaching. Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology, 81(Supplement 1), S69 - S69

MO‐D‐230A‐02: an immersive virtual environment for training of radiotherapy students and developing clinical experience (2006)
Journal Article
Beavis, A., Ward, J., Bridge, P., Appleyard, R., & Phillips, R. (2006). MO‐D‐230A‐02: an immersive virtual environment for training of radiotherapy students and developing clinical experience. Medical physics, 33(6 part 15), 2164-2165. https://doi.org/10.1118/1.2241428

Purpose: Radiotherapy equipment and techniques are rapidly developing and so efficient training is invaluable. However, the demands on clinical systems and the lack of trained personnel make it difficult to achieve. As an alternative approach we have...
