Larry Cormack is a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Texas at Austin, and is an active member of the Center for Perceptual Systems. He received his B.S. with Highest Honors in Psychology from the University of Florida in 1986 and his Ph.D. in Physiological Optics from the University of California, Berkeley in 1992.
Dr. Cormack’s primary research interest is how the brain processes the motion of objects through the 3D environment. This topic is of interest because it is of utmost behavioral importance, it is not well understood, and yet it is a synthesis of two topics that are reasonably well understood (the binocular perception of depth, and the perception of 2D motion). Dr. Cormack is also interested in natural scene statistics and their relation to the evolution of the visual system, particularly with regard to depth and motion processing.
Dr. Cormack teaches mostly graduate statistics.
