Spatial Processing and View-Dependent Representations

View-dependent representations have been shown in studies of navigation, object and scene recognition, and spatial reasoning. In this chapter, we discuss the relationship between different types of view-dependent representations. Based on previous studies and new data presented in this chapter, we proposed a model that contains an egocentric spatial working memory and a LTM representation of similar nature, and discussed theoretical issues that can potentially distinguish between different models of spatial representations.
