• Abstraction in perceptual symbol systems. (2003, background): “For example, holistic representations could include blob-like representations of an entity's global shape, extracted by low-spatial frequency filters (e.g. Smith 1989; De Valois & De Valois 1988).”

• Respects for similarity (1993, background): “Linda Smith (1989b) has offered a quantitative model of perceptual classification based on the conjecture that there is a developmental increase in the tendency to differentially weight dimensions and specifically to give special weighting to identity of values along a dimension.”
