Notes for this articleTwo monkeys were shown stimuli that varied across view and identity, i.e. objects from different viewpoints and different objects. Even when introduced to new stimulus sets of varying similarity (organized into a three dimensional feature space), the monkeys reliably performed well up to $60{\circ}$ changes in viewpoint. To obtain this capacity of object recognition across viewpoints, the monkeys were trained by discriminating between objects at each particular view. Training effects were observed for both new stimulus sets, and sets familiarized over the course of 4 weeks. Further, the monkeys did perform better on the familiar set, especially for translations $\geq 90^{\circ}$, which required explicit pairings in training. Wang et al. conjecture that IT neurons are tuned to view-invariant aspects of objects, yielding the observed behavioral capacity.
