effects of brain trauma. Read his article in this week's Science. Music Host – Robert Frederick Putting on a funny face or shining a light on your face from beneath your chin are both ways of dramatically changing what your face looks like, especially to a computer that is trying to recognize you by comparing your image to one stored in its database. Even the best facial recognition programs fall well short of the human brain's ability to recognize a face under such varying conditions. But in research published
