Image memorability predicts social media virality and externally-associated commenting
Visual content on social media plays a key role in entertainment and information sharing, yet some images gain more engagement than others. We propose that image memorability – the ability to be remembered – may predict viral potential. Using 1,247 Reddit image posts across three timepoints, we assessed memorability with neural network ResMem and correlated the predicted memorability scores with virality metrics. Memorable images were consistentl…
The temporal and spatial properties of memorability reveal insights into the art creation process
What divides and unites our memories: Multifactor trial-wise predictions of memory across 6+ million trials
A majority of memory research examines a single or a few factors that influence memory, but a broader perspective is needed to form a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms of memory. Prior work has largely focused on observer effects (e.g., individual differences, internal states) and environmental effects (e.g., task, context), with only more recent work focusing on item effects (e.g., the typicality or memorability of stimuli). Here, I …
Memory augmentation with an adaptive cognitive interface
Drawings reveal changes in object memory, but not spatial memory, across time
The memorability of voices is predictable and consistent across listeners
Highly similar and competing visual scenes lead to diminished object but not spatial detail in memory drawings
Drawings of scenes made from memory can be highly detailed and spatially accurate, with little information not found in the observed stimuli. While prior work has focused on studying memory for distinct scenes, less is known about the specific detail recalled when episodes are highly similar and competing. Here, participants (N = 30) were asked to study and recall eight complex scene images using a drawing task. Importantly, four of these images …
Predicting visual memory across images and within individuals
Memorability of words in arbitrary verbal associations modulates memory retrieval in the anterior temporal lobe
The intrinsic memorability of face photographs.
The faces we encounter throughout our lives make different impressions on us: Some are remembered at first glance, while others are forgotten. Previous work has found that the distinctiveness of a face influences its memorability--the degree to which face images are remembered or forgotten. Here, we generalize the concept of face memorability in a large-scale memory study. First, we find that memorability is an intrinsic feature of a face photogr…

The Benefits of Interactions with Physically Present Robots over Video-Displayed Agents
Creative Uses of Software Errors: Glitches and Cheats
Video games constitute a major sector of computing with distinctive social implications. Analysis of video game programming errors, design limitations, and rule ambiguities suggests a range of positive functions that glitches and cheats may perform. Glitches are software errors, either programming bugs or design flaws. Cheats are tricks for mastering games by circumventing the official rules for play. This article is based on the study of 751 gli…
